Studying

Famous quotes containing the word studying:

    A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some sort becoming a tree; or draw a child by studying the outlines of its forms merely,—but by watching for a time his motions and plays, the painter enters into his nature and can then draw him at will in every attitude.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    [Pantagruel] considered studying medicine, but then he reflected that it was much too irritating and gloomy a profession, and that doctors smelled of enemas like the devil.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    It’s only when you have to use what you’ve studied that you regret not studying more.
    Chinese proverb.
