Vie : les citations

En anglais : "Education is a social process; education is growth; education is not preparation for life but is life itself."

"I believe that education, therefore, is a process of living and not a preparation for future living." My Pedagogic Creed (1897)

Apocryphe.
Cette phrase est issue du dessin animé "Peter Pan" de Walt Disney, qui est une traduction trés libre de l'anglais : "Think of a wonderful thought, any merry little thought". Rien n'indique par ailleurs que Walt Disney soit l'auteur de la phrase en anglais.

Autre traduction : "Toute vie, dans sa course, est un processus de décomposition" ( trad. Pierre Guglielmina dans Un livre à soi (Les Belles Lettres, 2011) )

En anglais: "Of course all life is a process of breaking down, but the blows that do the dramatic side of the work -- the big sudden blows that come, or seem to come, from outside -- the ones you remember and blame things on and, in moments of weakness, tell your friends about, don’t show their effect all at once. There is another sort of blow that comes from within -- that you don’t feel until it’s too late to do anything about it, until you realize with finality that in some regard you will never be as good a man again. The first sort of breakage seems to happen quick -- the second kind happens almost without your knowing it but is realized suddenly indeed." (The Crack-Up)

En anglais : "Life is a mystery to be lived, not a problem to be solved"
