Inspirational Quotes on Learning

“When people fail, we are inclined to find fault with them, but if you look more closely, you will find that God had some particular truth for them to learn, which the trouble they are in is to teach them.”

“We are a long time in learning that all our strength and salvation is in God.”

“Every perfection in this life has some imperfection mixed with it and no learning of ours is without some darkness. Humble knowledge of self is a surer path to God than the ardent pursuit of learning.

Many often err and accomplish little or nothing because they try to become learned rather than to live well.” ~ Thomas à Kempis (1380–1471); Imitation of Christ; Chapter 3”
