I have a most interesting collection of my top five quotes on schooling:

Number Five

Ben Sweetland:

We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own.

Number Four

Arthur Koestler:

Creativity is a type of learning process where the teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.

Number Three

Epictetus:

It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows.

Number Two

Author Unknown:

I was born intelligient, School ruined me!

Number One

Dr. Frenzo:

School is meant for only those who cant take responsibility for their own education. For the weak minds who needs the prodding of other weak minds and the fears of examination to study!

Worthy of Mention:

I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.

- Winston Churchill
