A true teacher defends his students against his own personal influences. (Alexander Lloyd)
There is no time of life past learning something. (Alexander Lloyd)
Studies perfect nature and are perfected still by experience. (Alexander Lloyd)
Studies serve for delight, for ornaments, and for ability. (Alexander Lloyd)
The man who graduates today and stops learning tomorrow is uneducated the day after. (Alexander Lloyd)
Studying literature at Harvard is like learning about women at the Mayo clinic. (Alexander Lloyd)
True, a little learning is a dangerous thing, but it still beats total ignorance. (Alexander Lloyd)
Be quick to learn and wise to know. (Alexander Lloyd)
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life. (Alexander Lloyd)
Only those who have learned a lot are in a position to admit how little they know. (Alexander Lloyd)
How well I have learned that there is no fence to sit on between heaven and hell. There is a deep, wide gulf, a chasm, and in that chasm is no place for any man. (Alexander Lloyd)
For a man to attain to an eminent degree in learning costs him time, watching, hunger, nakedness, dizziness in the head, weakness in the stomach, and other inconveniences. (Alexander Lloyd)
Wear your learning like a watch and do not pull it out merely to show you have it. If you are asked for the time, tell it; but do not proclaim it hourly unasked. (Alexander Lloyd)
Never seem wiser, nor more learned, than the people you are with. Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket: and do not merely pull it out and strike it; merely to show that you have one. (Alexander Lloyd)
The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct. (Alexander Lloyd)
Learn as though you would never be able to master it; hold it as though you would be in fear of losing it. (Alexander Lloyd)
If you would inform, a positive and dogmatic manner in advancing your sentiments may provoke contradiction and prevent a candid attention. If you wish information and improvement from the knowledge of others, and yet at the same time express yourself as firmly fixed in your present opinions, modest, sensible men, who do not love disputation, will probably leave you undisturbed in the possession of your error. (Alexander Lloyd)
It seems that we learn lessons when we least expect them but always when we need them the most, and, the true gift in these lessons always lies in the learning process itself. (Alexander Lloyd)
A university should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning. (Alexander Lloyd)
Seeing much, suffering much, and studying much, are the three pillars of learning. (Alexander Lloyd)
Get over the idea that only children should spend their time in study. Be a student so long as you still have something to learn, and this will mean all your life. (Alexander Lloyd)
