From Grayson Kirk

“After twelve (or more) years of schooling, we know how to figure the square root of an isósceles triangle (invaluable in daily life), but we might not know how to forgive ourselves and others.
We know what direction migrating birds fly in autumn, but we’re not sure which way we want to go.

We have dissected a frog, but perhaps have never explored the dynamics of human relationships.
We know who wrote “To be or not to be, that is the question”, but we don’t know the answer.
We know what pi is, but we’re not sure who we are.
We may know how to diagram a sentence, but we may not know how to love ourselves.
That our educational system is not designed to teach us the “secrets of life” is no secret. In school, we learn how to do everything—except how to live.”
 The most important function of education at any level is to develop the personality of the individual and the significance of his life to himself and to others. This is  the basic architecture of a life; the rest is ornamentation and decoration of the structure
