Educational Philosophy
Brightening One Corner is the educational philosophy of Anyang University. This philosophy promotes the belief that one's dormant self can be woken up with greatness that can brighten one's life and, by extension, one's surroundings when one accepts and appreciates who one is, where one is and what one does.
This philosophy guides and encourages individuals to practice introspection, to pay attention to every moment in daily life, to speculate on the causes of one's existence and to commit to life.

Famous quotes containing the words educational and/or philosophy:
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“In everyone’s youthful dreams, philosophy is still vaguely but inseparably, and with singular truth, associated with the East, nor do after years discover its local habitation in the Western world. In comparison with the philosophers of the East, we may say that modern Europe has yet given birth to none.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
