Education Motivational Quotes



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 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

3.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell

4.
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost

5.
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

6.
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.

7.
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

8.
Invest in yourself, in your education. There's nothing better.
Porter, Sylvia

9.
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.

10.
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

11.
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.

12.
Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.
G. M. Trevelyan

13.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

14.
No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.
Rudolph, Lee

15.
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

16.
Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.
Gail Godwin

17.
The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Plato

18.
The world is run by C students.

19.
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.
Stalin, Joseph

20.
The difficulty is to try and teach the multitude that something can be true and untrue at the same time.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

21.
Education has for its object the formation of character.
Herbert Spencer

22.
Fathers send their sons to college either because they went to college or because they didn't.
L. L. Henderson

23.
If nobody dropped out of eighth grade, who would hire the college graduates?

24.
The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
Rogers, Carl

25.
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

26.
Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.
Ruskin, John

27.
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.

28.
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David

29.
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole

30.
The advantage of a classical education is that it enables you to despise the wealth that it prevents you from achieving.
Russell Green

31.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.

32.
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne

33.
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

34.
The first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
Ruskin, John

35.
The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.
Plutarch

36.
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

37.
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don't.
Pete Seeger

38.
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep-herding.
Pound, Ezra

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

40.
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

41.
The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.
Herbert Spencer

42.
Education is a kind of continuing dialogue, and a dialogue assumes, in the nature of the case, different points of view.
Robert Hutchins

43.
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.

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

45.
An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates

46.
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

47.
America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
Evan Esar

48.
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller

49.
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

50.
Our attitude towards ourselves should be to be satiable in learning and towards others to be tireless in teaching.
Zedong, Mao
