The aim of education is knowledge, not of facts, but of values.
Life can only be understood backward, but it must be lived forwards.
Learning never exhausts the mind.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom, one must observe.
Life can only be understood backward, but it must be lived forwards.
Where there is shouting, there is no true knowledge.
Knowledge is the eye of desire and can become the pilot of the soul.
