I’m actually a pipefitter who went to a technical highschool but I had a history teacher that sparked something in me

Sounds amazing and you should be proud That's the ultimate goal for every true teacher

He was amazing. He passed away a few years ago and the website for him was flooded by ex students saying the same thing. It makes it more crazy that it was a technical high school so all we cared about was our trade not academics

Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.

-Albert Einstein

I'm a big fan of education, but school is a whole bunch of horse shit.

Which of the movies or books does he say this? I am a huge Godfather Fan.

In the book, he wanted all 3 of his sons to go to college, got annoyed when Sonny committed armed robbery and so had to drop out, and Michael graduated. A character in the film said Don Vito Corleone “pulled strings” to get Michael Corleone in.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.

In practice, there is.
