“Governments never learn. Only people learn.”

“Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, and never regrets.”

“Learn every day. Human beings must learn and know. It is only by learning and knowing, that they can raise their ‘level’. People are affected by what their eyes see, what their ears hear and by how they learn.”

“People never grow up, they just learn how to act in public.”

“I'm always learning something. Learning never ends.”

“It was never too late to learn something. The past is unalterable in any event. The future is the only thing we can change. Learning the lessons of the past is the only way to shape the present and the future.”

“There is no art which one government sooner learns of another than that of draining money from the pockets of the people.”

“We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world”

“The best thing for being sad," replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, "is to learn something. That's the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn. Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.”

“You must not think of what you learned as belonging to you. Your learning was only possible because of the people who taught you.”
