I don't know what's the matter with people: they don't learn by understanding; they learn by some other way - by rote, or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People learn something every day, and a lot of times it's that what they learned the day before was wrong.
Knowing is not understanding. There is a great difference between knowing and understanding: you can know a lot about something and not really understand it.
The trouble with people is not that they don't know but that they know so much that ain't so.
They know enough who know how to learn.
Much learning does not teach understanding.
People of quality know everything without ever having learned anything.
Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.
One of the reasons people stop learning is that they become less and less willing to risk failure.
Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.
I always believe that a person can learn so much by just jumping into something and trying to do it rather than having someone else teach you everything.
