"I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school.
They don't teach you how to love somebody.
They don't teach you how to be famous.
They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor.
They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer.
They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind.
They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying.
In other words, they don't teach you anything worth knowing.”
"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one."
But don't you think it's good, that school doen't teach you that?
ReplyDeleteSome things, you just have to learn yourself, and there is nobody, who can teach you these.
And if you learn to do them by yourself, you learn a lot about yourself.
Yes, I believe you're right. I just think it would be nice if we could skip all the discomfort, the thinking and the uneasy feelings that are in between.
