Foundation Year Programme

Famous quotes containing the words foundation, year and/or programme:

    “Wonder is the foundation of all philosophy; research, the progress; ignorance, the end. There is, by heavens, a strong and generous kind of ignorance that yields nothing, for honour and courage, to knowledge: an ignorance to conceive which needs no less knowledge than to conceive knowledge.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “Every year lays more earth upon us, which weighs us down from aerial regions, till we go under the earth at last.”
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)

    “In the case of all other sciences, arts, skills, and crafts, everyone is convinced that a complex and laborious programme of learning and practice is necessary for competence. Yet when it comes to philosophy, there seems to be a currently prevailing prejudice to the effect that, although not everyone who has eyes and fingers, and is given leather and last, is at once in a position to make shoes, everyone nevertheless immediately understands how to philosophize.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
