"I've come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive
element in the classroom. It's my personal approach that creates
the climate. It's my daily mood that makes the weather. As
a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child's
life miserable, or joyous. I can be a tool of torture, or
an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt
or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides
whether a crisis will be escalated, or de-escalated; and a
child humanized, or de-humanized."
