More on Teaching
“I transmit but do not create. I place my trust in the teachings of antiquity.”
“What people need and what they want may be very different.... Teachers are those who educate the people to appreciate the things they need.”
“Behold! I am weary of my wisdom, like the bee that has gathered too much honey; I need hands outstretched to take it from me. I wish to spread it and bestow it, until the wise have once more become joyous in their folly, and the poor happy in their riches.”
More on Learning
“How then is perfection to be sought? Wherein lies our hope? In education, and in nothing else.”
“Success is a miserable teacher. It tempts intelligent people to believe they cannot lose. And it is an unreliable guide to the future.”
“I guess by taking lessons early on, and really trying to play all the rudimentary stuff, and try to have it sound as good as my teacher. It took a lot of practice, which I enjoyed, and still do.”
