The most powerful drive in the ascent of man is his pleasure in his own skill. He loves to do what he does well and, having done it, he loves to do it better.
- Jacob Bronowski
The brain is designed to learn through constant repetition and active, hands-on involvement. Through such practice and persistence, any skill can be mastered.
This is Goethe on why reading alone is not enough:
“People think that by reading they become learned; but it is not so. Reading only supplies materials for knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours. Without reflection, what we take in remains external and does not truly belong to us.”
The patience that never wears out in the heart of a farmer is like a precious stone and will always be valuable, revealing beauty wherever it’s directed.
