"You can only learn in an environment where someone who is more advanced than you can stimulate you, challenge you, support you and give you direction."[1]
"In your own life, you will learn the most being around someone else who is more competent, more determined, more capable or more understanding than you are. People of lesser ability may make you feel good about yourself temporarily, but they cannot lead you into new territory. They cannot enable you to progress. They cannot enable you to advance. They can only confirm the advancement that you have received from being with someone who was more advanced than you."[1]
"You must find the power of Knowledge. Learn how it expresses itself in your life. Learn how it feels. Feel when it is restraining you. Feel when it is guiding you or motivating you. Learn to penetrate the surface of your mind, to see the great well of silence that exists beneath this surface, the great well of silence where Knowledge exists."[2]
