Best Quotes about Education
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone
The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.
Plutarch
Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.
James A. Garfield
Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.
Gail Godwin
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
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
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
Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Mark Twain
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don't.
Pete Seeger
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
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph
School is where you go between when your parents can't take you, and industry can't take you.
Updike, John
The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.
Herbert Spencer
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
I just graduated and already I'm way behind.
No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.
Rudolph, Lee
The difficulty is to try and teach the multitude that something can be true and untrue at the same time.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
The great thing, then, in all education, is to make our nervous system our ally instead of our enemy.
William James
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
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.
Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
Clive James
An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.
The most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
Plato
Education is a state-controlled manufactory of echoes.
Norman Douglas
Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.
Ruskin, John
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Stockdale, James B.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra
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
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
The world is run by C students.
The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving.
Russell Green
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
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller
Education has for its object the formation of character.
Herbert Spencer
America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
Evan Esar
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
