Much learning doth make thee mad. It is always in season for old men to learn. All wish to be learned, but no one is willing to pay the price. Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man. The three foundations of learning: Seeing much, suffering much, and studying much. Wear your learning like your watch, in a private pocket; and do not pull it out and strike it, merely to show that you have one. And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew, That one small head should carry all it knew. They have learned nothing, and forgotten nothing. A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring; Their shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, And drinking largely sobers us again. A learned man is an idler who kills time by study. Men learn while they teach. |
