LEARNING AND LIVING

There is no difference between living and learning. It is impossible and misleading and harmful to think of them as being separate. Efficient learning is the acquisition of the art of the utilization of knowledge. This is an art which is very difficult to impart. We must beware of inert ideas, that is to say, ideas that are merely received into the mind without being utilized or tested or thrown into fresh combinations.

The great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to train it to the use of its own powers rather than to fill it with the accumulation of others. - Tryon Edwards
