Important Quotes

"It is a mistake to consider that possession of a textbook, however conscientiously read, is equivalent to possession of the knowledge it contains. To profit by either lecture or text, the material must be made your own. To be made your own, it must be translated into your own terms and put to use."

― Albert Walton, The Fundamentals of Industrial Psychology, xi

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”

― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

“If then a practical end must be assigned to a University course, I say it is that of training good members of society... It is the education which gives a man a clear, conscious view of their own opinions and judgements, a truth in developing them, an eloquence in expressing them, and a force in urging them. It teaches him to see things as they are, to go right to the point, to disentangle a skein of thought to detect what is sophistical and to discard what is irrelevant.”

― John Henry Newman, The Idea of a University
