The 15 Best Quotes to Inspire You to Never Stop Learning
// Pick the Brain | Motivation and Self Improvement

I used to think that school was the place to get an education. But I was wrong. School is just part of your education. We live in an Information Age where we can learn about almost anything in the world --- as long as we have the willpower to. There's bound to be a website, video or podcast that you can get access to for free (or close to free), where you'll get the information you want. So all we have to do is cultivate a burning desire to learn. I hope that these 15 quotes will help you to do just that: 1. "I have no special talent, I am only passionately curious." - Albert Einstein 2. "The person who knows HOW will always have a job; the person who knows WHY will always be the boss." - John Maxwell 3. "In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists." - Eric Hoffer 4. "If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest." - Benjamin Franklin 5. "Shall I tell you a secret of a true scholar? It is this: every man I meet is my master in some point and in that I learn from him." - Ralph Waldo Emerson 6. "Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know." - Daniel Boorstin 7. "Don't let your learning lead to knowledge. Let your learning lead to action." - Jim Rohn 8. "If a person will spend one hour a day on the same subject for five years, that person will be an expert on that subject." - Earl Nightingale 9. "Unless you do something beyond what you've already mastered, you will never grow." - Ronald E. Osborne 10. "The greatest enemy of learning is knowing." - John Maxwell 11. "It's what you learn after you know it all that counts." - John Wooden 12. "What is a college? An institute of learning. What is a business? An institute of learning. Life, itself, is an institute of learning." - Thomas Edison 13. "That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way." - Doris Lessing 14. "There is nothing new under the sun, but there are lots of old things we don't know." - Ambrose Bierce 15. "The quickest way to become an old dog is to stop learning new tricks." - John Rooney

It's over to you
