Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
John Dewey (1859 –
1952):
“Education is a
social process; education is growth; education is not preparation for life but
is life itself.”
and
“Failure is
instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his
failures as from his successes.”
and
“Were all instructors
to realize that the quality of mental process, not the production of correct
answers, is the measure of educative growth something hardly less than a
revolution in teaching would be worked.”
and
“We do not learn from
experience...we learn from reflecting on experience.”
Robert Pinsky (1940 -
):
“A sentence is like a
tune. A memorable sentence gives its emotion a melodic shape. You want to hear
it again, say it—in a way, to hum it to yourself. You desire, if only in the
sound studio of your imagination, to repeat the physical experience of that
sentence. That craving, emotional and intellectual but beginning in the body
with a certain gesture of sound, is near the heart of poetry.”
Viggo Mortensen (1958
- ):
“You don't have to
make something that people call art. Living is an artistic activity, there is
an art to getting through the day.”
and
“Be kind. It's
worthwhile to make an effort to learn about other people and figure out what
you might have in common with them.”
Snoop Dogg (Lion)
(1971 - ):
"It's so easy for a
kid to join a gang, to do drugs... we should make it that easy to be involved
in football and academics."
