3 December 2020 Laura Bush Libraries allow children to ask questions about the world and find the answers. And the wonderful thing is that once a child learns to use a library, the doors to learning are always open.
3 December 2020 Donald Rumsfeld Secretary Powell and I agree on every single issue that has ever been before this administration except for those instances where Colin’s still learning.
3 December 2020 Geri Halliwell Someone taught me how to eat properly. Learning from others is important when it’s not working for yourself.
3 December 2020 Bo Derek It’s really difficult for me. Language, I am sorry that I haven’t. I think I just always expected that you learn a word in place of a word and when I discovered how difficult the grammar was and learning that was very discouraging for me.
3 December 2020 Cher I’m learning English at the moment. I can say ‘Big Ben’, ‘Hello Rodney’, ‘Tower Bridge’ and ‘Loo’.
3 December 2020 Joaquin Phoenix I’ve always loved music, but I never really played anything. After ‘Walk the Line’ and learning to play guitar, and having that sense of performing, I think that certainly opened the door for me, for music.
3 December 2020 Marvin Minsky I think Lenat is headed in the right direction, but someone needs to include a knowledge base about learning.
3 December 2020 Tim McGraw I feel like that I’m learning all the time. I’m learning from new artists, from established artists… every time I listen to ’70s rock ‘n’ roll records, I’m learning. And I think that I’m just now starting to get a hold on what I do.
3 December 2020 Roy Blount, Jr. Studying literature at Harvard is like learning about women at the Mayo clinic.

3 December 2020 Felicity Jones Acting has always existed alongside my normal life. It’s been a case of learning on the job. I’ve worked in so many styles, with so many people, so I’ve picked bits up from everyone and everything.
3 December 2020 Angela Davis I grew up in the southern United States in a city which at that time during the late ’40’s and early ’50’s was the most segregated city in the country, and in a sense learning how to oppose the status quo was a question of survival.
3 December 2020 Michael Baden I saw why people died and how they died. I saw gunshot wounds and liver failure. It was a good learning experience, so I came regularly on weekends and holidays.
3 December 2020 Heston Blumenthal And I like asking questions, to keep learning people with big egos might not want to look unsure.
3 December 2020 Meshell Ndegeocello It’s interesting to do other people’s music – that’s how I learned to play, by learning other people’s songs. It’s nice to delve into how other people got to where they are.
3 December 2020 Andrew Weil By keeping my hand in that, it’s the way I keep learning. The main way you learn in medicine is by practicing and working with patients.

3 December 2020 Michael J. Fox No, I got a GED in my 30s. My kids know that I never stop learning, and they know I love reading. I have books overflowing everywhere. I am current on today’s events and I read the paper every day, and we talk about it, so they see that appetite.
3 December 2020 Emily Carr I sat staring, staring, staring – half lost, learning a new language or rather the same language in a different dialect. So still were the big woods where I sat, sound might not yet have been born.
3 December 2020 Lord Mountbatten Churchill was the canny political animal, very devious, bursting with energy and determination, learning as hard as he could.
3 December 2020 Mick Mars I’m thinking about learning a few new things – like taking classical guitar lessons – and I’d like to bring what I learn into hard rock.
