    My primary philosophy is that everyone knows something that is worth learning.
I agree with your philosophy. I was just saying the other night at a party, after asking a lot of questions of someone, that I'd almost always rather be the one learning in the conversation. I ask a lot of questions and it's made all the difference. Of course, I'm happy to "teach" when the opportunity arises but for the most part people are so interesting, it's a shame to not learn more about/from them.
