What usually
happens in the educational process is that the faculties are
dulled, overloaded, stuffed and paralyzed so that by the
time most people are mature they have lost their innate
capabilities.
-- R. Buckminster Fuller
1895-1983, American Inventor,
Designer, Poet, Philosopher
Out of my
general world-pattern-trend studies there now comes strong
evidence that nothing is going to be quite so surprising and
abrupt in the future history of man as the forward evolution
in the educational process.
-- R. Buckminster Fuller
1895-1983, American Inventor,
Designer, Poet, Philosopher
We learn
simply by the exposure of living. Much that passes for
education is not education at all but ritual. The fact is
that we are being educated when we know it least.
-- David P. Gardner
America's
greatness has been the greatness of a free people who shared
certain moral commitments. Freedom without moral commitment
is aimless and promptly self-destructive.
-- John W. Gardner
