Howard Gardner
I’d rather see the United States as a beacon of Good Work and Good Citizenship, rather than as #1 on some international educational measurement.
Howard Gardner

Howard Gardner
All human beings have all of the intelligences. But we differ, for both genetic and experiential reasons, in our profile of intelligences at any moment.
Howard Gardner
If you think education is expensive, try estimating the cost of ignorance.
Howard Gardner
Education is at a turning point
Howard Gardner
