“Knowledge can be acquired by education, reading, communicating and observing, but also simply by living.”

“WONDERLANDIt is a person’s unquenchable thirst for wonderThat sets them on their initial quest for truth.The more doors you open, the smaller you become.The more places you see and the more people you meet,The greater your curiosity grows.The greater your curiosity, the more you will wander.The more you wander, the greater the wonder.The more you quench your thirst for wonder,The more you drink from the cup of life.The more you see and experience, the closer to truth you become.The more languages you learn, the more truths you can unravel.And the more countries you travel, the greater your understanding.And the greater your understanding, the less you see differences.And the more knowledge you gain, the wider your perspective,And the wider your perspective, the lesser your ignorance.Hence, the more wisdom you gain, the smaller you feel.And the smaller you feel, the greater you become.The more you see, the more you love –The more you love, the less walls you see.The more doors you are willing to open,The less close-minded you will be.The more open-minded you are,The more open your heart.And the more open your heart,The more you will be able to Send and receive –Truth and TRUEUnconditionalLOVE.”

“A good education must expose knowledge gaps and increase the hunger for further inquiries.A good education is not complete.”

“You got to experience it, so you never forget the valuable lessons of life.”

“In this life one of the greatest lessons I’ve learned is that I still have a lot to learn.”

“Worldly ambition inhibits true learning. Ask me. I know. A young man in a hurry is nearly uneducable: He knows what he wants and where he’s headed; when it comes to looking back or entertaining heretical thoughts, he has neither the time nor the inclination. All that counts is that he is going somewhere. Only as ambition wanes does education become a possibility.”

“Use two-way communication on oral exams to check the students’ knowledge, not their attitudes. Checking attitudes can lead to the slippery area of subjective assessment.”

“Real education is never acquisition of knowledge but training of character.”

“Ignorance is the root of many ills. Knowledge must be the fundamental ally of nations that aspire, despite all their tragedies and problems, to become truly emancipated, to build a better world.”

“The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention, over and over again, is the very root of judgment, character, and will. … An education which should improve this faculty would be the education par excellence.”

“A person is a scholar as long as he seeks knowledge. Once he thinks he knows, only then he becomes an ignorant.”

“Keep in mind my friend, if an answer is not rational, then it is not an answer, but a delusion.”

“What is essence of knowledge, if it does not change the way we act?”

“The knowledge of God is a sacred pursuit.”

“Whatever happens to us, was a useful education.”
