Famous quotes containing the words significant and/or persons:

    The proper aim of education is to promote significant learning. Significant learning entails development. Development means successively asking broader and deeper questions of the relationship between oneself and the world. This is as true for first graders as graduate students, for fledging artists as graying accountants.
    Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)

    Swans sing before they die—’twere no bad thing
    Should certain persons die before they sing.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
