The Labor of Thinking
 

 
 
 
Sir Joshua Reynolds wrote of many educational systems:
 
A provision of endless apparatus, a bustle of infinite inquiry and research, may be employed to shuffle off real labor--the labor of thinking.
 
Education in the foundational phases (Core and Love of Learning) is all about learning, and education in Scholar and Depth phase is all about thinking.
 
 
Too often schooling gets in the way of learning and thinking.
