Teaching is a good distraction, and I am in contact with young people, which is very gratifying.

What can the Church do? If she stands by her moral teaching, then she will be seen as standing in judgement over a vast percentage of Europeans.

To be frank, I suspect that today there is little respect for Christianity as source of moral teaching about goodness.

I served as Dean until 1974, when I stepped down to return to full time teaching and research.

Teaching was the hardest work I had ever done, and it remains the hardest work I have done to date.

One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it.

Sometimes I think war is God's way of teaching us geography.

Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.

We had two grand antique professors who had been teaching at Lombard since before I was born.

No one should teach who is not in love with teaching.

What we should be teaching are the problems and holes and I think there are legitimate problems and holes in the theory of evolution. And what we need to do is to present those fairly from a scientific point of view. And we should lay out areas in which the evidence supports evolution and the areas in the evidence that does not.
