Learning

College doesn’t make fools; it develops them. It doesn’t make bright men; it develops them. A fool will turn out a fool, whether he goes to college or not, though he’ll probably turn out a different sort of a fool. And a good, strong boy will turn out a bright, strong man.

Some men learn the value of truth by having to do business with liars; and some by going to Sunday School. Some men learn the cussedness of whiskey by having a drunken father; and some by having a good mother. Some men get an education from other men and newspapers and public libraries; and some get it from professors and parchments.

There are times when it’s safest to be lonesome. Use a little common-sense, caution and conscience. You can stock a store with those three commodities, when you get enough of them. But you’ve got to begin getting them young. They ain’t catching after you toughen up a bit.

Learning Lessons for a Lifetime

The Bible is filled with countless lessons for us all. For Centuries many a good parent has taught their children lessons based on writings found in the Lord's Holy Bible. The teachings of the Bible can help any child learn a firm foundation of moral values. Values our children can use and benefit from for a lifetime.

Take this simple, timeless excerpt from Proverbs:

"For Jehovah giveth wisdom; Out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding:

He layeth up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to them that walk in integrity;

That he may guard the paths of justice, And preserve the way of his saints.

Then shalt thou understand righteousness and justice, And equity, yea, every good path.

For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant unto thy soul;

Discretion shall watch over thee; Understanding shall keep thee" Proverbs 2:6-11
