"Perhaps a more important reason for having education is the reality of not having an education and the denying of understanding to those who have no education." - Touno Mamare, author of Maoyuu Maoh Yuusha (translated from Japanese)

The best book a writer can ever write is a book that chooses its readers, not the other way around.

To a man, his world is what he sees, thinks and believes. But the man is not the world. He is just a part of it - just a fragment of its knowledge, culture and perspective.

To know how to suggest is the art of teaching.

Teachings, no matter the teacher, are only as valuable as they are applicable to growing you into your own mind and your own heart. If it divorces you from your sovereignty, it would seem inherently unwise to follow a path that doesn't lead to leading yourself.

A teacher who cannot explain any abstract subject to a child does not himself thoroughly understand his subject; if he does not attempt to break down his knowledge to fit the child's mind, he does not understand teaching.
