TruthOrator Daily Mind Refreshment And Food For Thought
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Mahatma Gandhi
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence. --Robert Frost
Ideally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or her school life is something like this: 'You are in the process of being indoctrinated. We have not yet evolved a system of education that is not a system of indoctrination. We are sorry, but it is the best we can do. What you are being taught here is an amalgam of current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being taught by people who have been able to accommodate themselves to a regime of thought laid down by their predecessors. It is a self-perpetuating system. Those of you who are more robust and individual than others will be encouraged to leave and find ways of educating yourself — educating your own judgements. Those that stay must remember, always, and all the time, that they are being moulded and patterned to fit into the narrow and particular needs of this particular society. --Doris Lessing
Give a girl an education and introduce her properly into the world, and ten to one but she has the means of settling well, without further expense to anybody. --Jane Austen
A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.
--Nelson Mandela
Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each. --Plato
Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously. --G.K. Chesterton
Often, it’s not about becoming a new person, but becoming the person you were meant to be, and already are, but don’t know how to be. --Ieath L. Buckmaster
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. --Henry Ford
Teach the ignorant as much as you can; society is culpable in not providing a free education for all and it must answer for the night which it produces. If the soul is left in darkness sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness. --Victor Hugo
I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything, and by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker. --Stanley Kubrick
Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world. --Paulo Freire
Do you know the difference between education and experience? Education is when you read the fine print; experience is what you get when you don't. --Pete Seege
Give a bowl of rice to a man and you will feed him for a day. Teach him how to grow his own rice and you will save his life. --Confucius
I believe that we learn by practice. Whether it means to learn to dance by practicing dancing or to learn to live by practicing living, the principles are the same. In each, it is the performance of a dedicated precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which comes shape of achievement, a sense of one's being, a satisfaction of spirit. One becomes, in some area, an athlete of God. Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired. --Martha Graham
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
A state that does not educate and train women is like a man who only trains his right arm. --Jostein Gaarder
It is, in fact, nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for this delicate little plant, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom. Without this it goes to wrack and ruin without fail. --Albert Einstein
Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the world's work, and the power to appreciate life. --Brigham Young
