"Life must be lived forward,
but it can only be understood backward."
~Soren Kierkegaard "...we have ignored what matters most. We have neglected to teach them
that one cannot think critically without quite a lot of knowledge to think
about. Thinking critically involves comparing and contrasting and
synthesizing what one has learned. And a great deal of knowledge is
necessary before one can begin to reflect on its meaning and look for
alternative explanations."
~Ravitch, Diane. "Critical Thinking? You Need Knowledge." Boston Globe 15 September 2009.
