| "I never let my schooling interfere with my education." ~ Mark Twain "Education makes people easy to lead, but difficult to drive, easy to govern, but impossible to enslave." ~ Henery Peter Brougham "Education is the leading of human souls to what is best, and making what is best out of them." ~ John Ruskin "Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught." ~ Oscar Wilde "There is no branch of mathematics, however abstract, which may not some day be applied to phenomena of the real world." ~ Nicolai Ivanovitch Lobachevsky "Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper." ~ Robert Frost "We cannot learn without pain." Aristotle "I think college administrators should encourage students to urinate on walls and bushes, because then when students from another college come sniffing around, they 'll know this is someone else's territory." ~ Jack Handey "Only the educated are free" ~ Epictetus "But if you ask what is the good of education in general, the answer is easy; that education makes good men, and that good men act nobly." ~ Plato "Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance." ~ Will Durant "The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving." ~Russell Green "Education's purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one." ~ Malcom S. Forbes "The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards." Anatole France "Learning is finding out what you already know." ~ Richard Bach "I have learnt silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strangely, I am ungrateful to these teachers." Kahili Gibran "Practice is the best of all instructors." ~ Pubilius Syrus "I hear and I forget. I see and I remeber. I do and I understand." ~ Confucius Analects "When the student is ready...the lesson appears." ~ Gene Oliver "The illiterate of the future will not be the person who cannot read. It will be the person who does not know how to learn." ~ Alvin Toffler |
