“Indeed, education is one of the institutions most deserving of disruption--and with the greatest opportunities to come of it.”

“I suppose that in no educational institution can one become an educated person.”

“Universal education through schooling is not feasible. It would be no more feasible if it were attempted by means of alternative institutions built on the style of present schools. Neither new attitudes of teachers toward their pupils nor the proliferation of educational hardware or software (in classroom or bedroom), nor finally the attempt to expand the pedagogue’s responsibility until it engulfs his pupils’ lifetimes will deliver universal education. The current search for new educational funnels must be reversed into the search for their institutional inverse: educational webs which heighten the opportunity for each one to transform each moment of his living into one of learning, sharing, and caring.”

“The greatest opportunities in life come with fear and risk.”

“The people with the most fear have the greatest opportunity to be brave.”

“Our most significant opportunities will be found in times of greatest difficulty.”
