Learning Quotes

Now, learning how to make a movie is something you can figure out in about an afternoon. The physics of it, the marks, the lights, etc. What's hard to do is to suspend your own feelings of self consciousness. The natural actors can do that; they can become part of a characterization and learn how to maintain it.
Tom Hanks

Go to the place where the thing you wish to know is native; your best teacher is there. Where the thing you wish to know is so dominant that you must breathe its very atmosphere, there teaching is moat thorough, and learning is most easy.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as an educated person. You are either learning or you are not.

You get to choose which you will experience.
Bob Proctor

If you're going to be passionate about something, be passionate about learning. If you're going to fight something, fight for those in need. If you're going to question something, question authority. If you're going to lose something, lose your inhibitions. If you're going to gain something, gain respect and confidence. And if you're going to hate something, hate the false idea that you are not capable of your dreams.

The really good kickers are the ones who can process that information. That's what I'm learning to do.

What is wrong with encouraging students to put "how well they're doing" ahead of "what they're doing." An impressive and growing body of research suggests that this emphasis undermines students' interest in learning, makes failure seem overwhelming, leads students to avoid challenging themselves, reduces the quality of learning, and invites students to think about how smart they are instead of how hard they tried.
Alfie Kohn
