Quotes About Learning
People never stop learning. From birth to death, we are learning something new every day. Formal education, starting with kindergarten and continuing through high school and beyond, teaches us facts and processes. Education teaches us how to learn. Learning extends far beyond the walls of school. Learning reading, writing and arithmetic are important, but so is learning about life.
