3 December 2020 Alan Perlis It goes against the grain of modern education to teach students to program. What fun is there to making plans, acquiring discipline, organizing thoughts, devoting attention to detail, and learning to be self critical.
3 December 2020 Art Garfunkel I like working solo and it was a lot of fun joking around with the audience, saying things. I’m only just learning how to do certain things.
3 December 2020 Jack Hanna The world is the true classroom. The most rewarding and important type of learning is through experience, seeing something with our own eyes.
3 December 2020 Ron Silver I can’t talk about foreign policy like anyone who’s spent their life reading and learning foreign policy. But as a citizen in a democracy, it’s very important that I participate in that.
3 December 2020 Christopher Parker It’s not just about filming, you go to awards and interviews too. I enjoy all of it, even learning my lines!
3 December 2020 Ted Allen I really have a great deal of humility in that department, and a great deal of respect for people who spend their lives learning how to make these amazing preparations.
3 December 2020 Jiddu Krishnamurti There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.
3 December 2020 Robert B. Parker It’s tempting to say the Ph.D. didn’t have an effect, but it’s not so. I think whatever resonance I may be able to achieve is in part simply from the amount of reading and learning that I acquired along the way.
3 December 2020 Ziggy Marley I think my type of personality has all music inside of it, so I am full of music, without even knowing it, without even learning it, without even hearing it.
3 December 2020 Jesse Jackson We must all learn a good lesson – how to live together. That is the new challenge of the new world… learning to co-exist and not co-annihilate.
3 December 2020 Norton Juster I think kids slowly begin to realize that what they’re learning relates to other things they know. Then learning starts to get more and more exciting.
3 December 2020 Abraham Cahan Only the other world has substance and reality only good deeds and holy learning have tangible worth.
3 December 2020 Antisthenes Not to unlearn what you have learned is the most necessary kind of learning.
3 December 2020 Kate Bosworth Acting is a life experience. I’m always learning things when I’m making a movie. So the fame part of it is fine when you consider what you get out of this job.
3 December 2020 Herb Ritts Even though I didn’t get a business degree, I enjoyed learning about economics.
3 December 2020 Richard Bach There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn whatever steps we take, they’re necessary to reach the places we’ve chosen to go.
3 December 2020 Hermann Hesse There is, so I believe, in the essence of everything, something that we cannot call learning. There is, my friend, only a knowledge – that is everywhere.
3 December 2020 Sai Baba The life ahead can only be glorious if you learn to live in total harmony with the Lord.
3 December 2020 Nick Lowe All those years we’d spent learning these chops, and all those gigs in Germany where you’d play all night, and along comes punk. It has nothing to do with that. A lot of people went out of business.
3 December 2020 Penelope Leach For a small child there is no division between playing and learning between the things he or she does just for fun and things that are educational. The child learns while living and any part of living that is enjoyable is also play.
3 December 2020 Harold H. Greene I enjoyed the administrative work because it involved working with Congress, city council, and the mayor. I had never been a politician so it was fun – learning political maneuvering.
3 December 2020 Ray Charles Learning to read music in Braille and play by ear helped me develop a damn good memory.
3 December 2020 Vivien Leigh English people don’t have very good diction. In France you have to pronounce very particularly and clearly, and learning French at an early age helped me enormously.
3 December 2020 Jim Carrey Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything. Period. If you ain’t desperate at some point, you ain’t interesting.
3 December 2020 Novak Djokovic My father had never watched tennis, never liked tennis too much. He said, ‘OK, we buy a racket, we watch together,’ because we didn’t know anything. It was a process of learning together that made it more interesting.
