“the fundamental purpose of school is learning, not teaching.”
“The lessons one learns at school are not always the ones the school thinks it's teaching.”
“I am of the order whose purpose is not to teach the world a lesson but to explain that school is over.”
“Life, I've learned, is never fair. If they teach anything in schools, that should be it.”
“Schooling confuses teaching with learning, grade advancement with education, a diploma with competence, and fluency with the ability to say something new.”
“One of the things that school is for is to teach our children to understand and relish the idea of intellectualism, to develop into something more than a purpose-driven tool for the industrial state.”
