About This Quote

The lessons of past is critical for teachings in present. And experience in the future. The lesson of the past is applicable to the present. If you study something, you learn it.

If you don’t learn it, you can’t use it later on. The same goes for experiences that are taken in the past. But experience is different from knowledge.

Experience teaches you things that are not taught in school, but are still relevant to your life now. Knowledge does not teach you anything new at all. It just helps you remember things.
