The difference in a teacher and a mentor is that a mentor is interested in our soul.

Dickens's final book, 'The Mystery of Edwin Drood,' forms the jumping-off point for my new novel, 'The Last Dickens'. This last work by Dickens has very little social commentary and a pretty tightly efficient storyline and cast of characters. Not necessarily what we think of when we think what characterizes Dickens.

I believe it’s impossible to claim you have taught, when there are students who have not learned.

John Wooden

I'm reading Barnaby Rudge, one of the less well-known Dickens novels. I've been a life-long lover of Charles Dickens ever since I think A Tale of Two Cities was the first Dickens novel I read.

A good mentor offers directions and driving tips from the back seat. You still have to drive the car.

Michael Johnson

A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a mentor, a teacher, a guidepost, a counsellor.

Henry Ward Beecher

My brother's my teacher, my mentor, and we both learnt all the acting basics from our father.

Jeff Bridges

There wasn't a better teacher or mentor out there than Reggie White, on or off the field.

Brett Favre

The thing about Dickens is you either love him or you hate him and I fell in love with Dickens, I fell in love with his prose style and I decided that I wanted to read the whole Dickens verve during the course of my life.
