Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“Knowable and unknowable are both human constructs - to have true understanding of the natural world, one must go beyond both, stepping firmly on the grounds of reason while fostering acceptance for others' weaknesses.”

“I have seen the fruits of adult education. It can be done. And anyone who has worked in adult education knows that he must appeal for self-help. There are no monitors to keep adults at the task. There are no examinations and grades, none of the machinery of external discipline. The person who learns something out of school is self-disciplined. He works for merit in his own eyes, not credit from the registrar. (1940 ed. page 104)”

“L'italiano sembra già dentro di me e, al tempo stesso, del tutto esterno. Non sembra una lingua straniera, benché io sappia che lo è. Sembra, per quanto possa apparire strano, familiare. Riconosco qualche cosa, nonostante non capisca quasi nulla. Cosa riconosco? È bella, certo, ma non c'entra la bellezza. Sembra una lingua con cui devo avere una relazione. Sembra una persona che incontro un giorno per caso, con cui sento subito un legame, un affetto. Come se la conoscessi da anni, anche se c'è ancora tutto da scoprire. So che sarei insoddisfatta, incompleta, se non la imparassi.”
