 My dad used to say apprenticeships were a good idea. People should learn by doing, he said -- by seeing how it was done, getting their hands dirty -- instead of sitting in a classroom and getting pumped full of rules and facts and formulas, with no feel for how they worked in the real world. 

—Altar Boy (Brian Kinney)
