"The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And these qualities have little to do with success as our culture has defined it." - Earth & MInd - David Orr - Our education system (which is lifelong) needs to emphasize values instead of theories, human beings rather than concepts, consciousness rather than abstraction, questions instead of answers, and conscience rather than ideology and efficiency.
