• ”Nothing can be taught: everything can be learnt”.

  A Chinese proverb

• "These are magical moments that take us from not knowing, to knowing....I have theorized and unscientifically and anecdotally confirmed thus far, that the majority of these “learning moments” for most of us involve interaction with at least one other human – a teacher, a mentor, a peer, a parent, a friend. Most of them don’t happen without connections to other human beings, or with our head resting in frustration on a textbook – or a keyboard." (Why the Squirrel?)

• "Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood .... Make big plans. Aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency."
  -- Daniel Burnham

• "Nothing makes me sadder than the peer pressure
  that enforces conformity and erases wonder. ...Countless others had the
  light of intellectual wonder extinguished because a thoughtless and
  swaggering fellow student called them nerds on the playground.... We must
  rage against the dying of the light - and although Dylan Thomas spoke of
  bodily death in his famous line, we may also apply his words to the
  extinction of wonder in the mind, by pressures of conformity in an
  anti-intellectual culture." - Stephen Jay Gould, Bully for Brontosaurus:
  Reflections in Natural History. 1991

• I do not accept any absolute formulas for living. No preconceived code can see ahead to everything that can happen in a man's life. As we live, we grow and our beliefs change. They must change. So I think we should live with this constant discovery. We should be open to this adventure in heightened awareness of living. We should stake our whole existence on our willingness to explore and experience.

  Martin Buber

• "The task of education is not to pour information into students' heads, but to engage students' minds with powerful and useful concepts." (Slavin, B.)

• Life, jose, is not what you see, but what you've projected. It's not what you've felt, but what you've decided. It's not what you've experienced, but how you've remembered it. It's not what you've forged, but what you've allowed. It's not who's appeared, but who you've summoned. And it's not where you've been, but where you're going.

  And this should serve you well, beloved, until you find, what you already have.
