Best Quotes about Education

1.
The principle goal of education is to create men who are capable of doing new things, not simply of repeating what other generations have done -- men who are creative, inventive and discoverers.
Piaget, Jean

2.
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Plato

3.
Bachelor's degrees make pretty good placemats if you get'em laminated.
Jeph Jacques

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

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.
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

8.
The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
Rogers, Carl

9.
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole

10.
It is only the ignorant who despise education.
Publilius Syrus

11.
I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.
Mark Twain

12.
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David

13.
Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.
G. M. Trevelyan

14.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim

15.
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

16.
Education begins a gentleman, conversation completes him.
Dr. Thomas Fuller

17.
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.

18.
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

19.
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

20.
The most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
Plato

21.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

22.
The strength of the United States is not the gold at Fort Knox or the weapons of mass destruction that we have, but the sum total of the education and the character of our people.
Claiborne Pell

23.
Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled.
Wu Ting-Fang

24.
Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the worlds work, and the power to appreciate life.
Young, Brigham

25.
The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.
Plutarch

26.
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra

27.
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

28.
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

29.
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

30.
The foundation of every state is the education of its youth.
Diogenes Laertius

31.
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

32.
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.

33.
Education, we see, is not merely gaining knowledge or skills helpful toward productive work, though certainly that is a part of it. Rather it is a replenishment and an expansion of the natural thirst of the mind and soul. Learning is a gradual process of growth, each step building upon the other. It is a process whereby the learner organizes and integrates not only facts but attitudes and values. The Lord has told us that we must open our minds and our hearts to learn. There is a Chinese proverb: Wisdom is as the moon rises, perceptible not in progress but in result. As our knowledge is converted to wisdom, the door to opportunity is unlocked.
Winder, Barbara W.

34.
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

35.
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don't.
Pete Seeger

36.
An effeminate education weakens both the mind and the body.
Quinet, Edgar

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

39.
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone

40.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.

41.
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

42.
Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Mark Twain

43.
The world is run by C students.

44.
The difficulty is to try and teach the multitude that something can be true and untrue at the same time.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

45.
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph

46.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John

47.
Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated.
Savage, Robert C.

48.
Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.
James A. Garfield

49.
The creative person is usually rebellious. He or she is the survivor of a trauma called education.

50.
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
