The great difficulty in education is to get experience out of ideas.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas as in escaping from old ones.
Experience can be a great teacher.
I came to accept during my freshman year that many of the gaps in my knowledge and understanding were simply limits of class and cultural background, not lack of aptitude or application as I'd feared.
Experience teaches slowly, and at the cost of mistakes.
There's no learning without trying lots of ideas and failing lots of times.
Education in the past has been too much inspiration and too little information.
To throw obstacles in the way of a complete education is like putting out the eyes.
Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.
Education comes from within; you get it by struggle and effort and thought.
There is nothing so easy to learn as experience and nothing so hard to apply.
