How about ...

If you make them think they're thinking, they'll love you;
if you really make them think, they'll hate you.

(I don't truly feel this way, but there are certain days ...)

Anyone know of a book of teaching quotations?  I've seen gardening, golf,
and so forth, but haven't been able to track down any on teaching.
