Of Lectures

Famous quotes containing the word lectures:

    Behold, I do not give lectures or a little charity,
    When I give I give myself.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Hence a young man is not a proper hearer of lectures on political science; for he is inexperienced in the actions that occur in life, but its discussions start from these and are about these; and, further, since he tends to follow his passions, his study will be vain and unprofitable, because the end aimed at is not knowledge but action.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
