“We are not what we know but what we are willing to learn.”
Mary Catherine Bateson

“Rarely is it possible to study all of the instructions to a game before beginning to play, or to memorize the manual before turning on the computer. The excitement of improvisation lies not only in the risk of being involved but in the new ideas, as heady as the adrenaline of performance, that seems to come from nowhere.”
Mary Catherine Bateson, Peripheral Visions: Learning Along the Way

“The critical question about regret is whether experience led to growth and new learning. Some people seem to keep on making the same mistakes, while others at least make new ones. Regret and remorse can be either paralyzing or inspiring. [p. 199]”
Mary Catherine Bateson, Composing a Further Life: The Age of Active Wisdom
