Baby steps
9 months before you were born you made yourself out of thin air, from scratch, from a single cell that split itself in two, to the finished product complete with heart, blood, bones, hair, skin, teeth, nails, common senses, and brain, too.
Then they put you in a school pretending that you must learn everything from scratch again, despite the fact the pro-fess-ors made themselves out of thin air, from scratch, from a single cell that split itself in two, too!
Is that in sane or is that insane?
You be the judge.
NOT taught at school beyond the shadow of a doubt:
- Everything you have a word for, and everything you know, is a word.
- To say of two words they are identical is nonsense, and to say of one word it is identical with itself is to say nothing.
- To see, you must forget the word of what you’re looking at.
- You don’t take baby steps for the distance they cover, but to put yourself within reach of magic, in the same way as you don’t hoist your sails to move the boat, but to put yourself within reach of the wind.
- “Old and young are taught falsehoods in school.” – Plato 2,410 years ago.
- “We learn not in the school, but in life.” – Lucius Annaeus Seneca 1,996 years ago.
- “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once they grow up.” – Pablo Picasso 98 years ago.
- “The school system is the homogenizing hopper into which we toss our integral tots for processing.” – Marshall McLuhan 78 years ago.
- ”When I look back on all the crap I learned in high school, it’s a wonder I can think at all.” – Paul Simon 42 years ago.
