7 LETTER from TEACHER and CHILD by Haim Ginott.
Dear Teacher, I am a survivor of a concentration camp. My eyes saw what no man should witness: Gas chambers built by learned engineers. Children poisoned by educated physicians. Infants killed by trained nurses. Women and babies shot and burned by high school and college graduates. So, I am suspicious of education. My request is: Help your students become human. Your efforts must never produce learned monsters, skill psychopaths, educated Eichmanns. Reading, writing, arithmetic are important only if they serve to make our children more humane. Memo written to teachers by a private school principal on the first day of school quoted in Teacher and Child by Haim Ginott
