No wealth like education and no poverty like ignorance
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Image
Whoever wants to be a leader should educate himself before educating others. Before preaching to others he should first practice himself. Whoever educates himself and improves his own morals is superior to the man who tries to teach and train others.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Image
Crime is a social problem, and education is the only real deterrent. Look at all of us in prison we were all truants and dropouts, a failure of the educational system. Look at your truancy problem, and you're looking at your future prisoners. Put the money there.
Wilbert Rideau
Image
A college education is not a quantitative body of memorized knowledge salted away in a card file. It is a taste for knowledge, a taste for philosophy, if you will a capacity to explore, to question to perceive relationships, between fields of knowledge and experience.
Alfred Whitney Griswold
Image
Books won't stay banned. They won't burn. Ideas won't go to jail. In the long run of history, the censor and the inquisitor have always lost. The only sure weapon against bad ideas is better ideas. The source of better ideas is wisdom. The surest path to wisdom is a liberal education.
Alfred Whitney Griswold
Image
Men must be able to engage in business and go to war, but leisure and peace are better they must do what is necessary and indeed what is useful, but what is honorable is better. On such principles children and persons of every age which requires education should be trained.
Aristotle
Image
He promoted the education of the parish clergy and wrote: He seems to me a very foolish man, and very wretched, who will not increase his understanding while he is in the world, and ever wish and long to reach that endless life where all shall be made clear.
Alfred the Great
Image
We are the transition from one education to the other.
Alfred Rosenberg
Image
Read properly, fewer books than a hundred would suffice for a liberal education. Read superficially, the British Museum Library might still leave the student a barbarian.
Alfred Richard Orage
Image
Education with inert ideas is not only useless it is above all things harmful.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
There is only one subject matter for education, and that is Life in all its manifestations
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
In all education the main cause of failure is staleness.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
The purpose of education is not to fill a vessel but to kindle a flame.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
The antithesis between a technical and a liberal education is fallacious. There can be no adequate technical education which is not liberal, and no liberal education which is not technical.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
The aim of education should be to preserve and nurture the yearning for learning that a child is born with.
W. Edwards Deming
Image
What a teacher doesn't say...is a telling part of what a student hears.
Maurice Natanson
Image
Sixty years ago I knew everything. Now I know nothing. Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.
Will Durant
Image
If we practiced medicine like we practice education, wed look for the liver on the right side and left side in alternate years.
Alfred Kazin
Image
Woe to him who teaches men faster than they can learn.
Will Durant
Image
The only person who can fix education is the student.
Oliver DeMille
Image
I think education is one of the greatest tools for most kids not only to expand their book knowledge, but their ability to experience new things - I think it opens more doors than any other experience I can think of.
Will Estes
Image
To most of us nothing is so invisible as an unpleasant truth. Though it is held before our eyes, pushed under our noses, rammed down our throats- we know it not.
Eric Hoffer
Image
States have the responsibility to create rules and conditions for growth and development, and to channel the benefits to all citizens by providing education and making people able to participate in the economies, and in decision-making.
Anna Lindh
Image
Our speech has its weaknesses and its defects, like all the rest. Most of the occasions for the troubles of the world are grammatical.
Michel de Montaigne
