Famous quotes containing the words business and/or school:
“Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail, in good spirits.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
“We are all adult learners. Most of us have learned a good deal more out of school than in it. We have learned from our families, our work, our friends. We have learned from problems resolved and tasks achieved but also from mistakes confronted and illusions unmasked. . . . Some of what we have learned is trivial: some has changed our lives forever.”
—Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
