No voice teacher can be all things to all people. You have to gain information from whatever sources you can. You have to listen.
Interpretation
What this quote means
No single teacher can meet everyone's needs; knowledge must be gathered from various sources.
This quote emphasizes that while a voice teacher can provide valuable guidance, students must actively seek knowledge from multiple sources and learn from different experiences. Listening is a crucial aspect of this process, as it allows individuals to absorb diverse perspectives and deepen their understanding of their craft.

I think there in a great deal to be said for religious education in the sense of teaching about religion and biblical literacy.

If you are taught comparative religion, you are more likely to realise that there are other religions than the one you have been brought up in. And if you are if you are taught to read the bible, I can think of almost nothing more calculated to turn you off religion.
