Inspirational Quote 18 - Thomas Moore

Education is not the piling on of learning,
information, data, facts, skills, or abilities.
That's training or instruction.
But it is rather a making visible what is hidden as a seed...

To be educated, a person doesn't have to know much
or be informed, but he or she does have to have been
exposed vulnerably to the transformative events of
an engaged human life...

One of the greatest problems of our time is
that many are schooled but few are educated.

Thomas Moore
