Motivational Quotes
Education
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Best Quotes about Education
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
No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.
Rudolph, Lee
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.
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
Education is a kind of continuing dialogue, and a dialogue assumes, in the nature of the case, different points of view.
Robert Hutchins
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don't.
Pete Seeger
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
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.
Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
Clive James
Fathers send their sons to college either because they went to college or because they didn't.
L. L. Henderson
Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Mark Twain
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller
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
Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.
Gail Godwin
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner
Our attitude towards ourselves should be to be satiable in learning and towards others to be tireless in teaching.
Zedong, Mao
Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the worlds work, and the power to appreciate life.
Young, Brigham
Education has for its object the formation of character.
Herbert Spencer
Education begins a gentleman, conversation completes him.
Dr. Thomas Fuller
An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates
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.
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
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
The foundation of every state is the education of its youth.
Diogenes Laertius
Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled.
Wu Ting-Fang
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne
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
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
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Plato
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra
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
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
Education is a state-controlled manufactory of echoes.
Norman Douglas
The world is run by C students.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim
It is only the ignorant who despise education.
Publilius Syrus
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell
Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.
Ruskin, John
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone
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
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
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Stockdale, James B.
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
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost
Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.
James A. Garfield
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
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
