"Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?"
- Bill Watterson
About this Quote
This quote by Bill Watterson is a funny way of pointing out the paradox of how much time and effort we put into learning, when we might simply stay ignorant and not need to put in any effort. It is a reminder that understanding and understanding require time and effort, and that it is not something that can be attained immediately. It is likewise a tip that knowledge is valuable which it deserves investing the time and effort into learning. Lack of knowledge might be instantaneous, but it is not a sustainable way of living. Understanding and understanding are necessary for development and progress, and it is essential to invest the time and effort into learning.
"At the heart of the Reggio Emilia approach is the belief that children are full of potential, competent, and capable of constructing their own learning"
"Learning and teaching should not stand on opposite banks and just watch the river flow by; instead, they should embark together on a journey down the water. Through an active, reciprocal exchange, teaching can strengthen learning how to learn"
"Suppose that we are wise enough to learn and know - and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains better than ignorance"
