Thomas L. Friedman Quote
We go to school for twelve or more years during our childhoods and early adulthoods, and then we’re done. But when the pace of change gets this fast, the only way to retain a lifelong working capacity is to engage in lifelong learning. There is a whole group of people—judging from the 2016 U.S. election—who did not join the labor market at age twenty thinking they were going to have to do lifelong learning, added Teller, and they are not happy about it.
