Learning >< Gain Somethin @ 6:02 PM
Sori ngepost cerita lagi, hehe. Yang ini gara-gara karya tulis gue matematika, dan gue berusaha mencari motto yang bagus, trus tiba-tiba randomly ketemunya satu peristiwa kecil yang cuma terjadi paling 10-20 detik. Tapi dalem banget.
A youth who had begun to read geometry with Euclid, when he had learnt the first proposition, inquired, "What do I get by learning these things?" So Euclid called a slave and said "Give him three pence, since he must make a gain out of what he learns."
Yep, belajar, nggak selalu berarti kita harus mendapatkan sesuatu secara langsung. Entahlah, tapi buat gue, belajar geometri membuat kita menghargai ruang, menghargai apa yang nggak bisa terukur. Make everything counts. Seperti yang Galileo Galilei bilang, "Measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so."
