Summary

This quote suggests that education should not be seen solely as a means to prepare individuals for their future lives, but rather as an ongoing process that enhances daily living.

Education is not just about acquiring information, but also about personal growth, critical thinking, and developing a broader perspective. It stresses that the true value of education lies in the enrichment it brings to our lives, rather than simply preparing us for what lies ahead.
