Knowledge, learning, talents are not necessarily connected with sound moral and political principles. . . . And eminent abilities, accompanied with depravity of heart, render the possessor tenfold more dangerous in a community.
Learning is definitely not mere imitation, nor is it the ability to accumulate and regurgitate fixed knowledge. Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
The silent treasuring up of knowledge; learning without satiety; and instructing others without being wearied: which one of these things belongs to me?
Knowledge, learning, is an eternal thing.
Learning to learn is to know how to navigate in a forest of facts, ideas and theories, a proliferation of constantly changing items of knowledge. Learning to learn is to know what to ignore but at the same time not rejecting innovation and research.
