The central task of education is to implant a will and facility for learning; it should produce not learned but learning people. The truly human society is a learning society, where grandparents, parents, and children are students together.

The Master said, 'Yu, shall I teach you what knowledge is? When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it;-- this is knowledge.'

Seek wisdom, not knowledge. Knowledge is of the past, Wisdom is of the future.

The unfinished character of human beings and the transformational character of reality necessitate that education be an ongoing activity.

It's in the act of having to do things that you don't want to that you learn something about moving past the self. Past the ego.

One who causes others misfortune also teaches them wisdom.
