Would the best place to start learning Drupal 8 now be to learn Symfony? If so, should I learn the whole thing, or are there some parts I can leave? Thanks.

Knowing Symfony doesn't hurt, but I don't think you need to know it unless you're interested in the background of changes made in D8. I'd say the best place to learn is all the blog posts and sessions, slides, and videos that have been presented at various camps already.

Please have a look at the first part at http://cipix.nl/understanding-drupal-8-part-1-general-structure-framework
