“We always find out, too late, that we don’t have the experts we need, that in the past we studied the wrong things; but this is bound to remain so. Since we can’t know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learnt.”
