education is to create

which merely
conditions the pupil,
and not gives them
intelligence."
4. Gautama Boeddha ong. 400 v. Chr.

common sense.”

instructive. The
person who really
thinks learns quite
as much from his
failures as from
his successes."
11. Lao Tse 6e eeuw voor Chr.
"Failure is an opportunity.
If you blame someone else,
there is no end to the blame.
Therefore the Master
fulfills her own obligations
and corrects her own mistakes.
She does what she needs to do
and demands nothing of
others."
12. Lao Tse 6e eeuw voor Chr.
"Knowing others
is wisdom,
knowing yourself
is
enlightenment."

"Self-education is,
I firmly believe,
the only kind of
education there
is."
14. Mary Parker Follett 1918
Education is a continuous
process, it does not end with
graduation day; it does not
end when ‘life’ begins. Life
and education must never be
separated. We must have more
life in our universities, more
education in our life... We
need education all the time
and we all need education.
15. Henry Nelson Wieman 20ste eeuw
"The ability to learn what
others have learned, to
appreciate what others
appreciate, to feel what others
feel, and to add all this to
what the individual has
acquired from other sources,
and finally to form out of it all
... one's own individuality is
what distinguishes the human
mind from everything else."
