Quote by Frederick William Robertson

Instruction ends in the schoolroom, but education ends only with life. A child is given to the universe to be educated.

Instruction ends in the schoolroom, but education ends only

Summary

This quote emphasizes the difference between instruction and education. While instruction refers to the formal learning that takes place in a schoolroom setting, education encompasses a much broader and lifelong process of acquiring knowledge, skills, and wisdom throughout one's entire existence. It implies that education cannot be confined to the boundaries of a classroom but is extended to the experiences and lessons gained from engaging with the world. The quote also reflects a belief that every individual is entrusted to the universe, thus highlighting the responsibility to enable a holistic and continuous education from birth until the end of life.
