About this Quote

The quote from Sly Stone "It's not the mentor, it's the learning" basically suggests that the act of mentor is not solely accountable for the acquisition of knowledge, however the obligation also rests on the ability to learn. This indicates that instructors can offer all the needed details and resources to their students, however it is up to the individual to effectively process and absorb that details. This quote stresses the value of taking obligation for one's own learning and not relying exclusively on the efforts of others. Through self-motivation and self-control, people are empowered to take control of their own education and achieve their goals.
