Discussion
"A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has came to the end his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them." Who said the above lines ?
Answer: A
The lines are Rabindranath Tagore's.
Tagore wrote that a teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself, as a lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The passage expresses his view that the teacher must be a lifelong learner who keeps knowledge alive rather than repeating lessons.
Gandhi, Dewey and Lincoln wrote on education and learning, but this passage is Tagore's.
