Best Quotes about Education

1.
Whom do I call educated? First, those who manage well the circumstances they encounter day by day. Next, those who are decent and honorable in their intercourse with all men, bearing easily and good naturedly what is offensive in others and being as agreeable and reasonable to their associates as is humanly possible to be... those who hold their pleasures always under control and are not ultimately overcome by their misfortunes... those who are not spoiled by their successes, who do not desert their true selves but hold their ground steadfastly as wise and sober -- minded men.
Socrates

2.
The creative person is usually rebellious. He or she is the survivor of a trauma called education.

3.
The most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
Plato

4.
The secret of all success is to know how to deny yourself. Prove that you can control yourself, and you are an educated man; and without this all other education is good for nothing.
R. D. Hitchcock

5.
The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
Rogers, Carl

6.
The purpose of education is to keep a culture from being drowned in senseless repetitions, each of which claims to offer a new insight.
Rosenberg, Harold

7.
The first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
Ruskin, John

8.
All my life, as down an abyss without a bottom. I have been pouring van loads of information into that vacancy of oblivion I call my mind.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

9.
School is where you go between when your parents can't take you, and industry can't take you.
Updike, John

10.
That's what college is for - getting as many bad decisions as possible out of the way before you're forced into the real world. I keep a checklist of'em on the wall in my room.
Jeph Jacques

11.
True education makes for inequality; the inequality of individuality, the inequality of success, the glorious inequality of talent, of genius; for inequality, not mediocrity, individual superiority, not standardization, is the measure of the progress of the world.
Schelling, Felix E.

12.
To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil's soul. To Miss Mackay it is a putting in of something that is not there, and that is not what I call education, I call it intrusion.
Spark, Muriel

13.
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don't.
Pete Seeger

14.
If our education had included training to bear unpleasantness and to let the first shock pass until we could think more calmly, many an unbearable situation would become manageable, and many a nervous illness avoided. There is proverb expressing this. It says,trouble is a tunnel thorough which we pass and not a brick wall against which we must break our head.
Weeks, Claire

15.
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost

16.
It is only the ignorant who despise education.
Publilius Syrus

17.
Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled.
Wu Ting-Fang

18.
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Stockdale, James B.

19.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.

20.
There is hardly a pioneer's hut which does not contain a few odd volumes of Shakespeare. I remember reading the feudal drama of Henry V for the first time in a log cabin.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

21.
Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.
Gail Godwin

22.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell

23.
Now, if the principle of toleration were once admitted into classical education --if it were admitted that the great object is to read and enjoy a language, and the stress of the teaching were placed on the few things absolutely essential to this result, if the tortoise were allowed time to creep, and the bird permitted to fly, and the fish to swim, towards the enchanted and divine sources of Helicon --all might in their own way arrive there, and rejoice in its flowers, its beauty, and its coolness.
Stowe, Harriet Beecher

24.
Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.
G. M. Trevelyan

25.
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra

26.
Education is a kind of continuing dialogue, and a dialogue assumes, in the nature of the case, different points of view.
Robert Hutchins

27.
If nobody dropped out of eighth grade, who would hire the college graduates?

28.
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller

29.
She knows what is the best purpose of education: not to be frightened by the best but to treat it as part of daily life.
John Mason Brown

30.
Fathers send their sons to college either because they went to college or because they didn't.
L. L. Henderson

31.
America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
Evan Esar

32.
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone

33.
Education begins a gentleman, conversation completes him.
Dr. Thomas Fuller

34.
Bachelor's degrees make pretty good placemats if you get'em laminated.
Jeph Jacques

35.
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole

36.
No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God... and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation, that we gain the education that we come here to acquire and which will make us more like our Father and Mother in heaven.
Whitney, Orson F.

37.
The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving.
Russell Green

38.

39.
I just graduated and already I'm way behind.

40.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim

41.
Education is a state-controlled manufactory of echoes.
Norman Douglas

42.
An educational system isn't worth a great deal if it teaches young people how to make a living but doesn't teach them how to make a life.

43.
I didn't go to college at all, any college, and I'm not saying you wasted your time or money, but look at me, I'm a huge celebrity.
Ellen DeGeneres

44.
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph

45.
Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Mark Twain

46.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

47.
Formal education is but an incident in the lifetime of an individual. Most of us who have given the subject any study have come to realize that education is a continuous process ending only when ambition comes to a halt.
Rees, R. I.

48.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John

49.
An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates

50.
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne
