And this is the sense of the word "grammar" which our inaccurate student detests, and this is the sense of the word which every sensible tutor will maintain.

Again, compare one idea with another; adjust truths and facts; form them into one whole, or notice the obstacles which occur in doing so. This is the way to make progress; this is the way to arrive at results; not to swallow knowledge, but (according to the figure sometimes used) to masticate and digest it. ↗

She wanted nothing ore than to challenge herself with more complex parts--and also wanted others to think of her as being more than a caricature. ... Anytime she had an opportunity to broaden her mind, she wanted to take advantage of it. ↗
The moment a person feels he has nothing left to learn is the moment life prepares to hit him hard enough to correct such ignorance. ↗

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It's being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond. ↗
