“Experience teaches only the teachable.”
“A teachable spirit and a humbleness to admit your ignorance or your mistake will save you a lot of pain. However, if you're a person who knows it all, then you've got a lot of heavy-hearted experiences coming your way.”
“All teachings are mere references. The true experience is living your own life. Then, even the holiest of words are only words.”
“There's nothing like failure and humiliation to make you teachable.”
“The mere habit of learning to love is the thing; and a teachableness of disposition in a young lady is a great blessing”
“Experience teaches us, but we scarcely know what.”
