Lessons

Famous quotes containing the word lessons:

    But what help from these fineries or pedantries? What help from thought? Life is not dialectics. We, I think, in these times, have had lessons enough of the futility of criticism.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Everything I ever learned as a small boy came from my father. And I never found anything he ever told me to be wrong or worthless. The simple lessons he taught me are as sharp and clear in my mind, as if I had heard them only yesterday.
    Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
