I Think Education Is Both

We Don't Focus As Much In Schools On Educational Knowledge Which Requires Thinking And Application, As We Do On Acquiring Facts.

We Can Teach A Lot Of Things, But If The Teacher Can't Relate By Talking To A Group Of Friendly Students, He'll Never Be A Competent Teacher.

If We Had In This Room A Hundred Teachers, Good Teachers From Good Schools, And Asked Them To Define The Word Education, There Would Be Very Little General Agreement.

To Focus On Discipline Is To Ignore The Real Problem: We Will Never Be Able To Get Students (or Anyone Else) To Be In Good Order If, Day After Day, We Try To Force Them To Do What They Do Not Find Satisfying.

The Ultimate Use Of Power Is To Empower Others.
