More on Education
“We must believe in the power of education. We must respect just laws. We must love ourselves, our old and or young, our women as well as our men.”
“Education is the basic tool for the development of consciousness and the reconstitution of society.”
“If education is beaten by training, civilization dies.”
More on Thinking
“We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.”
“Here's something that's contrary to popular belief: I actually don't like thinking. I think people think I like to think a lot. And I don't. I do not like to think at all.”
“Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking.”
