“Learning is the only thing…” -T.H. White
Tuesday, November16, 2010. Today I am grateful for education and learning, and the touch of humor that can take us further in our learning than we thought possible.

“Got that? I think everyone should go to college and get a degree, and then spend six months as a bartender and six months as a cabdriver. Then they would really be educated. – Al McGuire, basketball coach and commentator”
Further, from the same issue of Reader’s Digest, page 49:
“Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get when you don’t.- Pete Seeger”
“The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows. – Sydney J. Harris”
“Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance. – Will Durant”
“Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten. – B.F. Skinner.”
Thank you, Reader’s Digest!
Here’s to educators and learners and thinkers!
All three in one?
