A LITTLE LEARNING IS A DANGEROUS THING
The above line is an opening line of one of the important speeches by the Pope. Many times we come across people who don't have in depth knowledge of whatever they have learnt. People try to gain just general knowledge about particular subjects by doing short term courses. But remember shortcuts are never a sure way to success. If are take up something we must attain in depth knowledge of that aspect.
There are examples of quack doctors who get their education completed by unfair means but in the process stake the lives of so many people. Students take up short term courses which ensure jobs. But in the long run they realize that their jobs are not lucrative as the ones held by people who complete their degrees.
The value of learning has been greatly diminished in our society and this is very sad. People have no thirst for knowledge. If the trend does not stop, it will lead to a great downfall of the human race. Probably the recent "recession" is the result of little knowledge of the vagaries of the market !
