Quotes by Elisa Guerra  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Muchos maestros que hoy enseñan a leer lo hacen sin un conocimiento fundamentado de la teoría o incluso de la técnica. Adquieren libros de ejercicios publicados por diferentes editoriales basándose en lo atractivo de sus ilustraciones y la simplificación del trabajo que puedan ofrecer para el docente. “Que sea bonito, que aligere el trabajo y que no cueste mucho”, parecen ser los parámetros bajo los cuales se basan las decisiones sobre con qué y cómo enseñar a leer (y a escribir). Más aún, cuando se pregunta a las maestras qué método utilizan para la enseñanza, muchas responden con el nombre del libro que usan para la instrucción, más que aludir a la fundamentación teórica de su trabajo.”
Elisa Guerra, Aprender a leer a los 3: Método Doman Aplicado en el Aula Preescolar

“El niño debiera leer en voz alta sólo después de haber comprendido el significado de un texto” (Ramos, p.66).”
Elisa Guerra, Aprender a leer a los 3: Método Doman Aplicado en el Aula Preescolar

“When she transformed into a butterfly, the caterpillars spoke not of her beauty, but of her weirdness. They wanted her to change back into what she always had been. But she had wings.”
Dean Jackson

“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”
Charles Bukowski, What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire

“there are worse things
than being alone
but it often takes
decades to realize this
and most often when you do
it's too late
and there's nothing worse
than too late”
Charles Bukowski

“There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going to let anybody see you.”
Charles Bukowski

“You have to die a few times before you can really
live.”
Charles Bukowski, The People Look Like Flowers at Last
