Education

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
Education Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Education

1.
It is only the ignorant who despise education.
Publilius Syrus

2.
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

3.
A college degree is not a sign that one is a finished product but an indication a person is prepared for life.
Reverend Edward A. Malloy

4.
I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
Mark Twain

5.
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

6.
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

7.
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David

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

9.
Invest in yourself, in your education. There's nothing better.
Porter, Sylvia

10.
An effeminate education weakens both the mind and the body.
Quinet, Edgar

11.
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

12.
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

13.
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph

Robert Frost

15.
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne

16.
I am beginning to suspect all elaborate and special systems of education. They seem to me to be built up on the supposition that every child is a kind of idiot who must be taught to think.
Sullivan, Anne

17.
Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.
G. M. Trevelyan

18.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John

19.
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

20.
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.

21.
The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.
Plutarch

22.
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.

23.
The first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
Ruskin, John

24.
I just graduated and already I'm way behind.

25.
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone

26.
Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the worlds work, and the power to appreciate life.
Young, Brigham

27.
Our attitude towards ourselves should be to be satiable in learning and towards others to be tireless in teaching.
Zedong, Mao

28.
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole

29.
Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
Clive James

30.
The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.
Herbert Spencer

31.
Education has for its object the formation of character.
Herbert Spencer

32.
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Stockdale, James B.

33.
America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
Evan Esar

34.
The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
Rogers, Carl

35.
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

36.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.

37.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim

38.
The foundation of every state is the education of its youth.
Diogenes Laertius

39.
Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated.
Savage, Robert C.

40.
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

41.
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Plato

42.
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

43.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

44.
The great thing, then, in all education, is to make our nervous system our ally instead of our enemy.
William James

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

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

47.
The world is run by C students.

48.
Education is a kind of continuing dialogue, and a dialogue assumes, in the nature of the case, different points of view.
Robert Hutchins

49.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell

50.
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.
