No man who worships education has got the best out of education… Without a gentle contempt for education no man’s education is complete.
Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.
Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.
Education, n.: That which discloses to the wise and disguises from the foolish their lack of understanding.
