EducationThe highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence. [Rabindranath Tagore] Some generous fostering of ourselves might produce a very generous harvest. [Cf. Orison Swett Marden on 'giving'] Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself. [John Dewey] Education is the ability to listen to almost anything out of some regard. It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education. [Albert Einstein] Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils. [(Louis) Hector Berlioz] Good nurture and education implant good constitutions. [Plato] Experience is a good school, but some tests are too hard for learning. A teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary. Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself (Chinese). Some forms of public schooling are built up on the supposition that every child is a kind of imbecile who must be taught to think. Give a girl an education without expense to disturbed teachers. Wise education is a tool for changing the world for the better. |
