Nikos Kazantzakis, poet and novelist (1883-1957)

True teachers are those who use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross; then, having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create their own. -Nikos Kazantzakis, poet and novelist (1883-1957)

I agree with the sentiment, but the expression is a bit grandiose.
