Other 6 quotes are by Mother Teresa and other role models, or from music and movies, but what they all have in common is 7 , according to Good Morning America (GMA).
Much to Burgess’s 8 , some of the quotes that students 9 are things that he has told them on their bus rides. “The world is brighter because you’re part of it—Mr Anthony,” one note 10 . “What really got to me was when several of them wrote, ‘Stay awesome—Mr Anthony.’ They 11 mine and I didn’t think that would 12 be a thing. But that was really nice.” Burgess 13 .
When GMA asked him which quote was his 14 , Burgess said that all of them are perfect, adding, “I didn’t realize how 15 it would be on these kids.”
