Teach thy tongue to say 'I do not know', and thou shalt progress.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
Feeling gratitude isn't born in us — it's something we are taught, and in turn, we teach our children.
I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
Teach success before teaching responsibility. Teach them to believe in themselves. Teach them to think, 'I'm not stupid'. No child wants to fail. Everyone wants to succeed.
You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
The most used program in computers and education is PowerPoint. What are you learning about the nature of the medium by knowing how do to a great PowerPoint presentation? Nothing. It certainly doesn't teach you how to think critically about living in a culture of simulation.
You can do anything if you set your mind to it. Look out for kids, help them dream and be inspired. We teach calculus in schools, but I believe the most important formula is courage plus dreams equals success.
None of us feels the true love of God till we realize how wicked we are. But you can't teach people that — they have to learn by experience.
For me, a good thriller must teach me something about the real world. Thrillers like 'Coma', 'The Hunt for Red October' and 'The Firm' all captivated me by providing glimpses into realms about which I knew very little — medical science, submarine technology and the law.
I have fought to protect those benefits that ensure better salaries for teachers across the Nation such as grants to pay off student loans and funding for Teach for America. Still, we must all do more to show our continued appreciation for our Nation's leading role models.
Voting is how we participate in a civic society — be it for president, be it for a municipal election. It's the way we teach our children — in school elections — how to be citizens, and the importance of their voice.
We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.
The thing is that love gives us a ringside seat on somebody else's flaws, so of course you're gonna spot some things that kinda need to be mentioned. But often the romantic view is to say, 'If you loved me, you wouldn't criticise me.' Actually, true love is often about trying to teach someone how to be the best version of themselves.
You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war.
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education.
Every single thing that you learn really just gives you more comfort. It's something I counsel kids all the time: if someone is willing to teach you something for free, take them up on it. Do it. Every single time. All it does is make you more likely to be able to succeed. And it's kind of a nice way to go through life.
My children teach me to slow down and enjoy life.
The most important thing that parents can teach their children is how to get along without them.
Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
