Quote by Paulo Coelho

Teaching is only demonstrating that it is possible. Learning is making it possible for yourself.

Teaching is only demonstrating that it is possible. Learning

Summary

This quote implies that teaching serves as a way to show individuals what is achievable, while learning requires personal initiative to transform that possibility into reality. Teaching merely presents the knowledge or skills, providing an example of what can be done. However, true learning occurs when one actively engages with the material, comprehends it, and applies it to their own life. It emphasizes that learning is a process of self-discovery, where individuals take ownership and responsibility for acquiring and mastering new information or abilities.

The further I wake into this life, the more I realize that God is everywhere and the extraordinary is waiting quietly beneath the skin of all that is ordinary. Light is in both the broken bottle and the diamond, and music is in both the flowing violin and the water dripping from the drainage pipe. Yes, God is under the porch as well as on top of the mountain, and joy is in both the front row and the bleachers, if we are willing to be where we are.

Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself, the engineer, is explained by natural selection.
