"Quote"
"The belief that all genuine education comes about through experience does not mean that all experiences are genuinely or equally educative."
Annotations:
This quote is found at the beginning of Chapter 2, titled The Need of a Theory of Experience. After the first chapter heavily emphasizes the "organic connection between education and personal experience" (pg. 25), in the second chapter he explores and clarifies the need for quality of these experiences.
