This reminds me of a Chinese proverb. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."* Education lasts a lifetime in more ways than one. Take all lessons seriously in our formal schooling as well as the informal versions, Study the scriptures, that is study not just read them. *Chinese proverb.—The International Thesaurus of Quotations, ed. Rhoda Thomas Tripp, p. 76, no. 3 (1970) via an online search.
