A Quote by George Bernard Shaw

Experience fails to teach where there is no desire to learn. — © George Bernard Shaw
Experience fails to teach where there is no desire to learn.
If the student fails to learn, the teacher fails to teach.
When it comes time to teach, teach from your experience. Go out and do, learn from the doing, then teach from the knowing.
Everyone can act. Everyone can improvise. Anyone who wishes to can play in the theater and learn to become 'stage-worthy.' We learn through experience and experiencing, and no one teaches anyone anything. This is as true for the infant moving from kicking and crawling to walking as it is for the scientist with his equations. If the environment permits it, anyone can learn whatever he chooses to learn; and if the individual permits it, the environment will teach him everything it has to teach. 'Talent' or 'lack of talent' have little to do with it.
For the sole true end of education is simply this: to teach men how to learn for themselves; and whatever instruction fails to do this is effort spent in vain.
It's never too early to teach your children about the tool of money. Teach them how to work for it and they learn pride and self-respect. Teach them how to save it and they learn security and self-worth. Teach them how to be generous with it and they learn love.
What we teach children to love and desire will always outweigh what we make them learn.
The important thing is to learn through experience. The more you do the more you learn. I don't think anyone can teach acting from a podium.
The teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.
A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.
Those who have a desire to teach while coming to learn should not pose as disciples; they must come as teachers.
I don't think anybody can teach anybody anything. I think that you learn it, but the young writer that is as I say demon-driven and wants to learn and has got to write, he don't know why, he will learn from almost any source that he finds. He will learn from older people who are not writers, he will learn from writers, but he learns it -- you can't teach it.
Life's a university that'll teach you lessons, regardless of your desire to pass the “class” or not, there is always something else to learn
It is not often that nations learn from the past even rarer that they draw the correct conclusions from it. For the lessons of historical experience, as of personal experience, are contingent. They teach the consequences of certain actions, but they cannot force a recognition of comparable situations.
Teachers all over the nation are doing the job they are asked to do, but one they are not really prepared to do. To teach volleyball as a physical activity that is also a positive experience. If you care about volleyball, help these teachers have fun and learn more of this great game. Teach the teachers.
Love as a concrete foundation for an authentically functional civilization requires the around-the-clock labors of forgiveness. Without it, Love fails, Friendship fails, Intelligence fails, Humanity: fails.
I always tell people, I can't teach you yoga. Nobody can teach you yoga. I can't teach you to teach yoga. All I can do is teach you a set of instructions and if you follow these instructions, hopefully it will lead you to the experience of yoga.
