I can do things you cannot,
you can do things I cannot;
together we can do great things

– Mother Teresa

I found this quote fitting for the Social Change Projects that my students are working on, and their potential to make a difference. (Visit “Creating Social Change in the Classroom” for more information on the projects.)

-Mother Teresa
