"We should spend less time ranking children and more time helping them to identify their natural competencies and gifts and cultivate these. There are hundreds and hundreds of ways to succeed and many, many different abilities that will help you get there."  by Howard Gardner

I chose this quote because I truly feel that there is truth to what Gardner is saying.  Sometimes we get wrapped up in what a person can not do and forget to explore what they can do.
