I think there are huge lessons there, for young people who are getting started in life, as well as other people. And that is, to take responsibility for your own life. Only you are responsible for the course you take from there.

I think that growth happens and that learning happens in anybody's life regardless of what profession you're in.

Knowledge is exploding, so you need to commit yourself to a plan for lifelong learning.

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.

Responsibility for learning belongs to the student, regardless of age.

You can learn for your own sake, and that's fine, but if you come to Udacity, you learn because you want someone else to understand what you learned.

Learning is not compulsory... neither is survival.

Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do.

I think everything you do in life is a learning experience.
