Debasish Mridha
Why can't we repeat 8th grace five times and call that a high school education?
Audrey Regan
People come and go in our life but memories stays for ever.
Debasish Mridha
Really great moral teachers never do introduce new moralities: it is quacks and cranks who do that.... The real job of every moral teacher is to keep on bringing us back, time after time, to the old simple principles which we are all so anxious not to see; like bringing a horse back and back to the fence it has refused to jump or bringing a child back and back to the bit in its lesson that it wants to shirk.
C.S. Lewis
If you are always persuasive, you would be able to make new friends in society.
Saaif Alam
One enjoys the good things more to the extent that one goes to them after having labored in advance, for labors are a sauce for good things
Xenphon Ephesius
To learn that it's easier to be told by others what to think and believe than it is to think for yourself.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Education has nothing whatever to do with moral deterioration; and if one must admit that it develops a resolute spirit among the people, that is far from being a defect.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
hate school but love school and threat it right so you can be where you love to be all right?
Mohlalefi j motsima
You cannot change someone using fear, degradation, humiliation, or by comparing them to others. It can only be done through love, with love, for love.
Suzy Kassem
It seems that we had...not a better education, per se, but perhaps more incentive to use it. They learn, but they hardly think.
Ilona Andrews
To eliminate the discrepancy between men's plans and the results achieved, a new approach is necessary. Morphological thinking suggests that this new approach cannot be realized through increased teaching of specialized knowledge. This morphological analysis suggests that the essential fact has been overlooked that every human is potentially a genius. Education and dissemination of knowledge must assume a form which allows each student to absorb whatever develops his own genius, lest he become frustrated. The same outlook applies to the genius of the peoples as a whole.
Fritz Zwicky
Only that education deserves emphatically to be termed cultivation of the mind which teaches young people how to begin to think.
Mary Wollstonecraft
Fatherhood is the greatest education a man can ever receive.
Asa Don Brown
A man who makes a mistake, can learn from it.A man that makes the same mistake again, has never made a mistake in the first place.
Anthony T.Hincks
Even their insistence on educating their children, the last reflex of any exploited group before it sank into submission, marked the end of their resistance.
J.G. Ballard
Today we have a weakness in our education process in failing to understand the natural associations between the disciplines. We tend to study all our disciplines in unrelated parallel lines. This tends to be true in both Christian and secular education. This is one of the reasons why evangelical Christians have been taken by surprise at the tremendous shift that has come in our generation.
Francis A.Schaeffer
It’s a great honor, m’ijo. We know that. I’m sure everyone in Ysleta is proud of you. But this is who you are," she said, for a moment scanning the dark night air and the empty street. A cricket chirped in the darkness. "God help you when you go to this ‘Havid.’ You will be so far away from us, from everything you know. You will be alone. What if something happens to you? Who’s going to help you? But you always wanted to be alone; you were always so independent, so stubborn.""Like you.
Sergio Troncoso
In truth, the crossing from nature to culture and vice versa has always stood wide open. It leads across an easily accessible bridge: the practising life. People have committed themselves to its construction since they came into existence - or rather, people only came into existence by applying themselves to the building of said bridge. The human being is the pontifical creature that, from its earliest evolutionary stages, has created tradition-compatible connections between the bridgeheads in the bodily realm and those in cultural programes. From the start, nature and culture are linked by a broad middle ground of embodied practices - containing languages, rituals and technical skills, in so far as these factors constitute the universal forms of automatized artificialities. This intermediate zone forms a morphologically rich, variable and stable region that can, for the time being, be referred to sufficiently clearly with such conventional categories as education, etiquette, custom, habit formation, training and exercise - without needing to wait for the purveyors of the 'human sciences', who, with all their bluster about culture, create the confusion for whose resolution they subsequently offer their services.
Peter Sloterdijk
I have devoted my whole life to Physical Culture. I shall devote the rest too for the same. I have seen the degradation in which we are at present. I have travelled extensively and all that I have remarked here is from experience; and my suggestions are to meet the situation. I know they would, if adapted remedy the evil; for, I have studied carefully the position. If we in all seriousness wish to call ourselves the descendants of the mighty Yoddhas of past, if we wish not to cast a blot on the fair name of India, if we wish that India should have a future vying with its glorious past, if we wish that we should gain an honorable and equal place among the peoples of the world it should be our sacred resolve from now to wake up from the sleep as a lion; we should muster muscle and steel the body. For all greatness lies in Culture and 1 should only be too gratified if my scheme could put the youth of the country on the right track to achieve our most cherished Ideals.
Kodi Ramamurthy Naidu
The Swartzentruber Order is the most conservative on the Amish spectrum. Amish people have differences just like any culture.
Brenda Nixon
Gifted teachers master the patience required for the unending business of transmitting civilization down the generations, transforming biological facts – children – into social artifacts called citizens. It is wearying work and it is a wonder teachers can summon the stamina for it.
George F. Will
Amish recognize each others' horse like we do our friends' car.
Brenda Nixon
Building a naval power takes generations, not so much to develop the necessary technology as to pass along the accumulated experience that creates good admirals.
George Friedman
Academic life is but half life it is a withdrawal from the fight to utter smart things that cost you nothing except the thinking them from a cloister.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
The farm work they hated was the only work they knew. Often, even the basic skills of plumbing or electricity or mechanical work were mysteries to them – as were the job discipline and the subtleties that children raised in the industrial world learn without thinking about them; starting work on time, working set hours, taking orders from strangers instead of their father, playing office politics.
Robert A. Caro
What makes a civilization real to its inhabitants, in the end, is not just the splendid edifices at it centre, nor even the smooth functioning of the institutions they house. At its core, a civilization is the texts that are taught in its schools, learned by its students and recollected in times of tribulation.
Niall Ferguson
Culture, religion, and education, are conspiracies to standardize worldviews.
Mokokoma Mokhonoana
It must never be forgotten that the general standard of learning and culture of a nation has a large part in determining its law and polity.
Theodore Plucknett
Culture and collars had gone together, to him, and he had been deceived into believing that college educations and mastery were the same things.
Jack London
Perhaps, she had dreamed, she would teach some future King, shaping his child mind for a new and better world.
Margaret Landon
We came to recognize that our initial thinking about the keys to educational reform was wrong. The key variables weren’t pedagogical. They weren’t financial. They weren’t curricular. They weren’t research. They weren’t any of the usual things we’ve always talked about as the engines of change. The variables were deeply emotional and cultural.
David Edward Goldberg
Fixate on whole cultures, not specific pieces of poverty. No specific intervention is going to turn around the life of a child or an adult in any consistent way, but if you can surround a person with a new culture, and different web of relationships, then they will absorb new habits of thought and behavior in ways you will never be able to measure or understand. And if you do surround that person with a new, enriching culture, then you had better keep surrounding them with it, because if they slip back into a different culture, and most of the gains will fade away.
David Brooks
All topics should be studied through the lens of the Gospel.
C.J. Mahaney
Believe it or not, philosophy has consequences.
Jonathan V Last
For the first time on Planet Earth (in 1964 America), a nation was made up of more college students than farmers. An unheard-of 42% of high school graduates sought higher education.
Rick Perlstein
Here was a king who saw his subjects as peers and allies around whom he had growing up rather than semi-alien entities to be suspected and persecuted.
Dan Jones
How to teach again what has been taught correctly it incorrectly 1000 thousand times, throughout the millenniums of mankind's prudent folly? That is the hero's ultimate difficult task. How to render back into light-world language the speech-defying pronouncements of the dark? Many failures attest to the difficulties of this life-affirmative threshold.
Joseph Campbell
I inherited curiosity from my Dad.
Tom Clancy
Our problem right now is that we're so specialized that if the lights go out, there are a huge number of people who are not going to know what to do. But within every dystopia there's a little utopia.
Margaret Atwood
Religion, culture, education are all things that sound wonderful in theory. In practice, however, they are not so wonderful.
Marty Rubin
When you believe in your beauty, only then can everyone see it.
Debasish Mridha
To be happy, be happy with what you have. To be sad, want what you deserve.
Debasish Mridha
Standard languages are inventions, most of them confined to a recent period in human history. They are codes that give access not to clear thinking and basic decency but to the structured parts of our lives such as job interviews, political speeches, literary essays, novels, and the like. They signal education and learning, but they are not the same thing as education and learning.
Robert Lane Greene
If you look at the historical record, you will find that language has always been in decline. Which means, really, and it never has.
Robert Lane Greene
Music is the language of the universe, which everyone, including all animals, can understand.
Debasish Mridha
..all subjects are forms of discourse and that, therefore, almost all education is a form of language education. Knowledge of a subject mostly means knowledge of the language of that subject. Biology, after all, is not plants and animals; it is a special language employed to speak about plants and animals. History is not events that once occurred; it is a language describing and interpreting events, according to rules established by historians. Astronomy is not planets and stars but a special way of talking about planets and stars, quite different from the language poets use to talk about them.
Neil Postman
The desolate narrowness, the definitive thinness of experience is both the vainglory and the dead giveaway of a provincial man.
Pat Conroy
Education is like a seed, that when watered with knowledge and experience, grows into true wisdom.
Richard S. Hartmetz
Intuition is educated by experience and employed by curiosity.
Jim Blasingame
Education. Experience. Or are they the same thing?
Julian Fellowes
Happiness is not an experience, but the essence of experience.
Debasish Mridha
Wisdom is the byproduct of lifelong experience and education.
Debasish Mridha
