Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or theory:

    “You taught me language, and my profit on’t
    Is, I know how to curse. The red plague rid you
    For learning me your language!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “No one thinks anything silly is suitable when they are an adolescent. Such an enormous share of their own behavior is silly that they lose all proper perspective on silliness, like a baker who is nauseated by the sight of his own eclairs. This provides another good argument for the emerging theory that the best use of cryogenics is to freeze all human beings when they are between the ages of twelve and nineteen.”
    —Anna Quindlen (20th century)
