The belief that all genuine education comes about through experience does not mean that all experiences are genuinely or equally educative.

John Dewey 386 quotes

Just as a flower which seems beautiful and has color but no perfume, so are the fruitless words of the man who speaks them but does them not.

One lives with so many bad deeds on one's conscience and some good intentions in one's heart.

John Dewey 386 quotes

Luck, bad if not good, will al...

Luck, bad if not good, will always be with us. But it has a way of favoring the intelligent and showing its back to the stupid.

John Dewey 386 quotes

John Dewey 386 quotes

By object is meant some element in the complex whole that is defined in abstraction from the whole of which it is a distinction.

John Dewey 386 quotes

Since changes are going on anyway, the great thing is to learn enough about them so that we will be able to lay hold of them and turn them in the direction of our desires. Conditions and events are neither to be fled from nor passively acquiesced in; they are to be utilized and directed.

John Dewey 386 quotes

Children who know how to think for themselves spoil the harmony of the collective society.

John Dewey 386 quotes

The notion that 'applied' kn...

The notion that 'applied' knowledge is somehow less worthy than 'pure' knowledge, was natural to a society in which all useful work was performed by slaves and serfs, and in which industry was controlled by the models set by custom rather than by intelligence. Science, or the highest knowing, was then identified with pure theorizing, apart from all application in the uses of life; and knowledge relating to useful arts suffered the stigma attaching to the classes who engaged in them.

John Dewey 386 quotes

Complete adaptation to environ...

Complete adaptation to environment means death. The essential point in all response is the desire to control environment.

John Dewey 386 quotes

We have already noticed the di...

We have already noticed the difference in the attitude of a spectator and of an agent or participant. The former is indifferent to what is going on; one result is just as good as another, since each is just something to look at. The latter is bound up with what is going on; its outcome makes a difference to him.
