Quote by Plato

We do not learn and what we call learning is only a process

Summary

This quote implies that true learning is not about acquiring new information, but rather tapping into knowledge that already exists within us. It suggests that learning is more like remembering things we already know at a deeper level. This philosophical perspective challenges the notion of traditional education as solely imparting knowledge, emphasizing instead the idea that we are essentially rediscovering what we already possess within ourselves.
