Education Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Education

1.
The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence.
Wilde, Oscar

2.
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.

3.
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone

4.
The creative person is usually rebellious. He or she is the survivor of a trauma called education.

5.
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

6.
The number of books will grow continually, and one can predict that a time will come when it will be almost as difficult to learn anything from books as from the direct study of the whole universe. It will be almost as convenient to search for some bit of truth concealed in nature as it will be to find it hidden away in an immense multitude of bound volumes.
Denis Diderot

7.
The world is run by C students.

8.
Education is a kind of continuing dialogue, and a dialogue assumes, in the nature of the case, different points of view.
Robert Hutchins

9.
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

10.
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost

11.
Soap and education are not as sudden as a massacre, but they are more deadly in the long run. Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Twain, Mark

12.
The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
Rogers, Carl

13.
Our attitude towards ourselves should be to be satiable in learning and towards others to be tireless in teaching.
Zedong, Mao

14.
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.

15.
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

16.
Both class and race survive education, and neither should. What is education then? If it doesn't help a human being to recognize that humanity is humanity, what is it for? So you can make a bigger salary than other people?
Richards, Beah

17.
Education begins a gentleman, conversation completes him.
Dr. Thomas Fuller

18.
School is where you go between when your parents can't take you, and industry can't take you.
Updike, John

19.
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

20.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John

21.
The first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
Ruskin, John

22.
Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled.
Wu Ting-Fang

23.
The foundation of every state is the education of its youth.
Diogenes Laertius

24.
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

25.
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Plato

26.
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph

27.
A well-informed mind is the best security against the contagion of folly and of vice. The vacant mind is ever on the watch for relief, and ready to plunge into error, to escape from the languor of idleness.
Ann Radcliffe

28.
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.

29.
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David

30.
Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
Clive James

31.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

32.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim

33.
An effeminate education weakens both the mind and the body.
Quinet, Edgar

34.
An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't.
Anatole France

35.
Public school is a place of detention for children placed in the care of teachers who are afraid of the principal, principals who are afraid of the school board, school boards who are afraid of the parents, parents who are afraid of the children, and children who are afraid of nobody.

36.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell

37.
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra

38.
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

39.
You don't need fancy highbrow traditions or money to really learn. You just need people with the desire to better themselves.
Adam Cooper and Bill Collage

40.
Education has opened many, many doors. However, there are still innumerable doors shut tight -- unopened yet. These are the doors of the future. Perhaps one of my children will open one of these doors -- I shall help give him the key.

41.
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.

42.
Let us describe the education of our men. What then is the education to be? Perhaps we could hardly find a better than that which the experience of the past has already discovered, which consists, I believe, in gymnastic, for the body, and music for the mind.
Plato

43.
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller

44.
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne

45.
Every uneducated person is a caricature of himself.
Schlegel, Friedrich

46.
The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.
Herbert Spencer

47.
The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving.
Russell Green

48.
Bachelor's degrees make pretty good placemats if you get'em laminated.
Jeph Jacques

49.
Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.
G. M. Trevelyan

50.
Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.
Thomas H. Huxley
