As a teacher I realize that what one learns in school doesn't serve for very much at all, that the only thing one can really learn is self-understanding, and this is something that can't be taught.

I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.

The willingness to keep learning is, I think, the most important thing about trying to be good at anything. You never want to stop learning.

I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.

I've always had better luck learning things on my own. And I really love the challenge of doing it yourself and kind of being alone against the system.

I thought I was going to school to be other people, but really, what I learned was to be myself - accepting myself, my strengths and weaknesses.

I'm constantly learning, and that is the greatest gift of life in my opinion - to always be learning and growing.

I believe that whenever I want to learn something I can learn it much better and faster by myself if I'm motivated to learn it as opposed to kind of doing it in more a standard, institutionalized way.

My experiences have taught me a lot and I'm happy with my learnings, if not with what I went through to learn.
