To educate is to create a critical spirit and not just transfer knowledge


Archbishop Oscar Romero


#philosophy #true-meaning #education

A common misconception of education comes when the definition of education narrows to the intellectual. The child is compartmentalized. He is not seen as a whole person, fully-integrated with physical, emotional, spiritual and intellectual capacities. Thus, if an educational program attempts to address the child's intellect while ignoring his spiritual and emotional development, the approach is sadly ignoring the true reality of the child. Likewise, those who separate the spiritual and emotional part of a child from the intellectual make a big mistake. You cannot delegate only the intellectual training of your child to professionals and retain just the spiritual and emotional for yourself. Whatever class is taught, the whole child is affected.

The humanities should constitute the core of any university worth the name.


Terry Eagleton

Orwell was dealing with communism and his disillusionment with communism in Russia and what he saw the communists do in Spain. His novel was a response to those political situations. Whereas I was interested in more things than the political atmosphere. I was considering the whole social atmosphere: the impact of TV and radio and the lack of education. I could see the coming event of schoolteachers not teaching reading anymore. The less they taught, the more you wouldn't need books.


Ray Bradbury


#education

Giving importance to what we think because we thought it, taking our own selves not only (to quote the Greek philosopher) as the measure of all things but as their norm or standard, we create in ourselves, if not an interpretation, at least a criticism of the universe, which we don't even know and therefore cannot criticize. The giddiest, most weak-minded of us then promote that criticism to an interpretation that's superimposed, like a hallucination; induced rather than deduced. It's a hallucination in the strict sense, being an illusion based on something only dimly seen.


Fernando Pessoa

In practice, such trifles as contradictions in principle are easily set aside; the faculty of ignoring them makes the practical man.


Henry Adams

I existed before I received this body. I am the external and fundamental life energy of the universe.

I played with children so that I could learn from them.

To deceive oneself is worse than to deceive others." These harsh words pierced me to the core.

I wanted that future officer to weigh decisions with a supple mind and to be comfortable with nuance and uncertainty.
