If I can teach cricket overseas, why wouldn’t I do so in my own country?

Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away, history will teach us nothing.

Every moment you’re on this planet, you’re given an opportunity to learn and to teach others.

Teach the ignorant as much as you can; society is culpable in not providing a free education for all and it must answer for the night which it produces. If the soul is left in darkness, sins will be committed.

To love to teach is one thing, to love those you teach is another.

This is what the things can teach us: to fall, patiently to trust our heaviness. Even a bird has to do that before he can fly.

To teach in order to lead others to faith is the task of every preacher and of each believer

I don’t think anyone can teach you how to be a man but a woman. You only learn by learning what they need.

My director, Jesus, does not teach me to count my acts, but to do everything for love, to refuse Him nothing, to be pleased when He gives me a chance to prove to Him that I love Him – but all this in peace – in abandonment

Baseball teaches us that even when the odds are against us, we can still come back and win

My mom is very much about ‘less is more.’ She showed me how to use makeup to enhance your beauty but not to change your face, which I think is important.

The arts teach and moralise by their beauty alone, not by translating a philosophical or social formula. For the truly artistic person, painting has itself as it’s purpose, which is quite enough

Baseball teaches us patience, perseverance, and the value of teamwork

I have no idea what happens, but I do respond to other cultures that treat life with a much more positive approach. It teaches – especially when you’re a child – it teaches you to be afraid of everything, you feel like something bad is always going to happen. As to where that other way seems a much more spiritual and positive approach.

Lay then the axe to the root, and teach governments humanity. It is their sanguinary punishments which corrupt mankind

Solitude and silence teach me to love my brothers for what they are, not for what they say.

Teach me to go to the country beyond words and beyond names.

You can’t teach a child if the situation in which he is studying is intolerable… no Negro child who is going to a segregated school, which costs millions of dollars, is fooled about why he’s there. He’s there because white people want him there and no place else.

But I hope our wisdom will grow with our power, and teach us, that the less we use our power, the greater it will be.

One repays a teacher badly if one always remains nothing but a pupil.

I will teach the kids how to think in a positive way.

Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.

The object of teaching a child is to enable him to get along without a teacher

When someone teaches you something new, you never forget that person

I still remember when my teacher told me that football wouldn’t give me anything to eat

You teach best what you most need to learn.

Shall I teach you what knowledge? When you know a thing, say that you know it; when you do not know a thing, admit that you do not know it. That is knowledge

If your plan is for one year plant rice. If your plan is for ten years plant trees. If your plan is for one hundred years educate children.

To teach is to show what is possible; to learn is to make yourself possible.

You can only learn when you teach.

New sorrows teach new courage. Time makes the bitterest pain to ‘blossom like Aaron’s rod with flowers.

Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight.

Those of us who did make it have an obligation to build again. To teach to others what we know, and to try with what’s left of our lives to find a goodness and a meaning to this life.

Not length but strength is desirable. A sense of need is a mighty teacher of brevity. If our prayers had less of the tail feathers of pride and more wing they would be all the better. Verbiage is to devotion as chaff to the wheat.

Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of.

Nothing teaches us about the preciousness of the Creator as much as when we learn the emptiness of everything else.

You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war.

It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have learned English – up to fifty words used in correct context – no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese.

One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings.

An understanding heart is everything in a teacher, and cannot be esteemed highly enough

Teach me to be like you so I cannot give a f.

History teaches us that man learns nothing from history.

God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way

When you learn, teach, when you get, give.

Football is the beautiful game. It’s the game that gives you plenty of emotions, and what’s more, it teaches you to deal with those emotions.

I am not teaching you anything. I just help you to explore yourself

To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.

The word ‘superstar’ is an illusion.

You throw batting practice, you warm up pitchers, you sit and cheer. You do whatever you have to do to stay on the team.

The lips of the righteous teach many, But fools die for want of wisdom.

My music fights against the system that teaches to live and die.

Experience teaches us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than it is to dislodge them after they have got possession.

The ability to learn is older—as it is also more widespread—than is the ability to teach.

Quite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach our children.

The purpose of morality is to teach you, not to suffer and die, but to enjoy yourself and live

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

The difficulty is to try and teach the multitude that something can be true and untrue at the same time.

Marijuana… That’s not a drug, that’s a plant.

Learn from the masses, and then teach them.

I have found men who didn’t know how to kiss. I’ve always found time to teach them.

Learn from every mistake, because every experience, particularly your mistakes, are there to teach you and force you into being more who you are.

Look, part of the whole technique of disempowering people is to make sure that the real agents of change fall out of history, and are never recognized in the culture for what they are. So it’s necessary to distort history and make it look as if Great Men did everything – that’s part of how you teach people they can’t do anything, they’re helpless, they just have to wait for some Great Man to come along and do it for them.

All teaching and all intellectual learning come about from already existing knowledge.

Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach

First and foremost comes my family and my life with Brad. We have so much joy in raising our children and teaching them about the world that nothing really compares to that.

In great cities men are brought together by the desire of gain. They are not in a state of cooperation, but of isolation, as to the making of fortunes; and for all the rest they are careless of neighbors. Christianity teaches us to love our neighbour as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbour.

My idea of philosophy is that if it is not relevant to human problems, if it does not tell us how we can go about eradicating some of the misery in this world, then it is not worth the name of philosophy. I think Socrates made a very profound statement when he asserted that the raison d’etre of philosophy is to teach us proper living. In this day and age ‘proper living’ means liberation from the urgent problems of poverty, economic necessity and indoctrination, mental oppression

I do not know how to teach philosophy without becoming a disturber of the peace.

Text-books are but waste paper unless mind and spirit be in them

War is God’s way of teaching Americans geography

Countries, therefore, when lawmaking falls exclusively to the lot of the poor cannot hope for much economy in public expenditure; expenses will always be considerable, either because taxes cannot touch those who vote for them or because they are assessed in a way to prevent that.

A democratic government is the only one in which those who vote for a tax can escape the obligation to pay it.

I am far from denying that newspapers in democratic countries lead citizens to do very ill-considered things in common; but without newspapers there would be hardly any common action at all

I am indebted to my father for living, but to my teacher for living well

We shouldn’t teach great books; we should teach a love of reading.
