"Tell me, and I'll forget. Show me, and I'll remember. Involve me, and I'll learn."	Marla Jones
"That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons that history has to teach."	Aldous Leonard Huxley
"The age of Grace began in mid-Acts, after the conversion of the Apostle Paul. It is through his letters alone that we learn about the dispensation of Grace, about Israel being set aside, with Jew and Gentile being saved into the Body of Christ. It was Paul who taught 'all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses' (Acts 21:21). It was also Paul who proclaimed the forgiveness of sins 'to all who would believe' in Christ, adding that 'ye could not be justified by the law of Moses' (Acts 13:38-39). The measuring rod of grace tells us that the age of Grace began with Paul, then continued through those who were saved and subsequently carried on His God-given doctrines of grace."	John Fredericksen
"The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn."	Marcus Tullius Cicero

"The hardest of all is learning to be a well of affection, and not a fountain, to show them that we love them, not when we feel like it, but when they do."	Nan Fairbrother
"The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn."	Sir John Lubbock

"The man whose acquisitions stick is the man who is always achieving and advancing whilst his neighbors, spending most of their time in relearning what they once knew but have forgotten, simply hold their own."	William James
"The maxim that people should not have a right till they are ready to exercise it properly, is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim."	Thomas Babington Macaulay
"The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practised, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good. . . . God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself."	Pierre Charron
