I don’t have any secrets I need kept any more.
Frank OceanCutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovation and education is like lightening an overloaded airplane by removing its engine. It may make you feel like you’re flying high at first, but it won’t take long before you feel the impact.
Barack ObamaMy mother told me two things constantly. One was to be a lady and the other was to be independent, and the law was something most unusual for those times because for most girls growing up in the ’40s, the most important degree was not your B.A. but your M.R.S.
Ruth Bader GinsburgOn the first day of school, my teacher, Miss Mdingane, gave each of us an English name and said that from thenceforth that was the name we would answer to in school. This was the custom among Africans in those days and was undoubtedly due to the British bias of our education.
Nelson MandelaI drive way too fast to worry about cholesterol.
Steven WrightQuite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach our children.
Dan QuayleTeaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamI don’t drink water, haven’t drank water in 40 years.
Lou HoltzTell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
Benjamin FranklinI’m a good teacher and am great at observation and picking out what’s wrong and fixing it.
Abby Lee MillerWe do not learn; and what we call learning is only a process of recollection.
PlatoTwitter is great to connect with fans and be transparent. I enjoy that aspect about it. But really, I’m still trying to figure it out.
Kobe BryantMedicine is the restoration of discordant elements; sickness is the discord of the elements infused into the living body.
Leonardo da VinciI’m not really book-smart.
EminemI think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it’s one that’s easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world, I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country.
Jimmy CarterOne of my mentors schooled me on branding before it was a cliche term in the game.
Nipsey HussleIn France there are, I think, less than one per cent of people who are too skinny.
Karl LagerfeldThe Scoutmaster teaches boys to play the game by doing so himself.
Robert Baden-PowellI’m healthy as can be – not an ache or a pain. A lot of my prayer is thanking the Lord that I am healthy. I pray for long life and good health.
Joel OsteenTrain up a child in the way that he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
King SolomonWhen you have a conflict, that means that there are truths that have to be addressed on each side of the conflict. And when you have a conflict, then it’s an educational process to try to resolve the conflict. And to resolve that, you have to get people on both sides of the conflict involved so that they can dialogue.
Dolores HuertaIf you’re a person struggling to eat and stay healthy, you might have heard about Michael Jordan or Muhammad Ali, but you’ll never have heard of Bill Gates.
Bill GatesThere are thousands of boys being wasted daily to our country through being left to become characterless, and, therefore, useless wasters, a misery to themselves and an eyesore and a danger to the nation. They could be saved if only the right surroundings or environment were given to them at the receptive time of their lives.
Robert Baden-PowellI don’t believe you could be a 39-year-old quarterback in the NFL and eat cheeseburgers every day. I want to be able to do what I love to do for a long time.
Tom BradyUntil we’re educating every kid in a fantastic way, until every inner city is cleaned up, there is no shortage of things to do.
Bill GatesMy grandmother is over eighty and still doesn’t need glasses. Drinks right out of the bottle.
Henny YoungmanIntegrity means that you are the same in public as you are in private.
Joyce MeyerIf you have religious faith, very good, you can add on secular ethics, then religious belief, add on it, very good. But even those people who have no interest about religion, okay, it’s not religion, but you can train through education.
Dalai LamaAcademic qualifications are important and so is financial education. They’re both important and schools are forgetting one of them.
Robert KiyosakiSwimming has its educational value – mental, moral, and physical – in giving you a sense of mastery over an element, and of power of saving life, and in the development of wind and limb.
Robert Baden-PowellI don’t know that my schooling was conducive to wild ideas and creativity, but it gave me discipline, drive. They taught me how to think. I really know how to think.
Lady GagaWhat we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child.
George Bernard ShawIt occurred to me that there was no difference between men, in intelligence or race, so profound as the difference between the sick and the well.
F. Scott FitzgeraldI never enjoyed school and I was never that good at school so leaving wasn’t the biggest thing, but the social aspect of school, leaving your friends, you lose contact with them a bit and now I have more friends at the race track than the friends I keep in touch with at school.
Lando NorrisIt seems that when you have cancer you are a brave battler against the disease, but when you have Alzheimer’s you are an old fart. That’s how people see you. It makes you feel quite alone.
Terry PratchettI make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping.
Mark TwainFor me, education has never been simply a policy issue – it’s personal. Neither of my parents and hardly anyone in the neighborhood where I grew up went to college. But thanks to a lot of hard work and plenty of financial aid, I had the opportunity to attend some of the finest universities in this country.
Michelle ObamaThe healthiest competition occurs when average people win by putting above average effort.
Colin PowellI’m proud to be part of the Dr. Pepper Scholarship Giveaway. It’s a great program that gives me the chance to brighten the day for some lucky college students with free tuition.
Lou HoltzI believe in singing to such an extent that, if I were asked to redesign the British educational system, I would start by insisting that group singing becomes a central part of the daily routine. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourages a taste for cooperation with others.
Brian EnoAnyone who knows history, particularly the history of Europe, will, I think, recognize that the domination of education or of government by any one particular religious faith is never a happy arrangement for the people.
Eleanor RooseveltAt Facebook, we build tools to help people connect with the people they want and share what they want, and by doing this we are extending people’s capacity to build and maintain relationships.
Mark ZuckerbergWhen we are well, we all have good advice for those who are ill.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaWomen tend to be more intuitive, or to admit to being intuitive, and maybe the hard science approach isn’t so attractive. The way that science is taught is very cold. I would never have become a scientist if I had been taught like that.
Jane GoodallConnectivity is a human right.
Mark ZuckerbergPoliticians should read science fiction, not westerns and detective stories.
Arthur C. ClarkeNo boxer in the history of boxing has had Parkinson’s. There’s no injury in my brain that suggests that the illness came from boxing.
Muhammad AliNo man should escape our universities without knowing how little he knows.
J. Robert OppenheimerThe first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
John RuskinEverything is an open book. I don’t speak on other people’s hardship, but if it happened in my life or something that has been an experience on my particular journey, I’m going to talk about it. That’s what my fan base appreciates the most. I’m universal. You can relate to the things I say or that I go through.
Kevin HartThere is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiThe idea of going to school and getting a job is the most destructive one in your brain.
Robert KiyosakiYou teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.
George W. BushFor a highly motivated learner, it’s not like knowledge is secret and somehow the Internet made it not secret. It just made knowledge easy to find. If you’re a motivated enough learner, books are pretty good.
Bill GatesThe problem isn’t that Johnny can’t read. The problem isn’t even that Johnny can’t think. The problem is that Johnny doesn’t know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling.
Thomas SowellI sometimes wish I were suffering in a good cause, or risking my life for the good of others, instead of just being a gravely endangered patient.
Christopher HitchensYou don’t read in your own field. You read in that field when you’re young, so that you can learn.
Ray BradburyWe have to abandon the idea that schooling is something restricted to youth. How can it be, in a world where half the things a man knows at 20 are no longer true at 40 – and half the things he knows at 40 hadn’t been discovered when he was 20?
Arthur C. ClarkeYes, we’ve still got more work to do. More work to do for every American still in need of a good job or a raise, paid leave or a decent retirement; for every child who needs a sturdier ladder out of poverty or a world-class education; for everyone who has not yet felt the progress of these past seven and a half years.
Barack ObamaMy doctor told me I shouldn’t work out until I’m in better shape. I told him, ‚All right; don’t send me a bill until I pay you.‘
Steven Wright
