Educate and inform the whole mass of the people… They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.

Governor Romney has a great business background. He is extremely well educated. He has several degrees from Harvard, including, you know, business and including a law degree.

We do not learn; and what we call learning is only a process of recollection.

When I was young I didn’t care about education, just money and box office.

To accuse others for one’s own misfortunes is a sign of want of education. To accuse oneself shows that one’s education has begun. To accuse neither oneself nor others shows that one’s education is complete.

All knowledge which ends in words will die as quickly as it came to life, with the exception of the written word: which is its mechanical part.

In almost every area of human endeavor, the practice improves over time. That hasn’t been the case for teaching.

A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce, or a tragedy, or perhaps both.

In order that all men may be taught to speak the truth, it is necessary that all likewise should learn to hear it.

We are not to expect to be translated from despotism to liberty in a featherbed.

It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations.

Real education enhances the dignity of a human being and increases his or her self-respect. If only the real sense of education could be realized by each individual and carried forward in every field of human activity, the world will be so much a better place to live in.

Learning never exhausts the mind.

Because of our sacred regard for each human intellect, we consider the obtaining of an education to be a religious responsibility.

Peace is liberty in tranquillity.

Every citizen has the real right to receive general education and professional training at no cost, something that the United States has not been able to ensure for all its inhabitants.

I give the children education.

When I first stopped going to high school, I was about 15, 16. It had to be, like, 2000, 2001.

I need physics more than friends.

The happy Union of these States is a wonder; their Constitution a miracle; their example the hope of Liberty throughout the world.

It was very lucky for me as a writer that I studied the physical sciences rather than English. I wrote for my own amusement. There was no kindly English professor to tell me for my own good how awful my writing really was. And there was no professor with the power to order me what to read, either.

What nobler employment, or more valuable to the state, than that of the man who instructs the rising generation?

Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing needs, is good for him.

The giving of love is an education in itself.

The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That’s one thing about a little education. It spoils you for actual work. The more you know the more you think somebody owes you a living.

Until we’re educating every kid in a fantastic way, until every inner city is cleaned up, there is no shortage of things to do.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

That’s correct, I flunked out of high school twice because I couldn’t write.

I’m turned on by guys who are cultured. That’ll keep me intrigued. They don’t have to have a single degree, but they should speak other languages or know things about other parts of the world or history or certain artists or musicians. I like to be taught. I like to sit on that side of the table.

What’s amazing is, if young people understood how doing well in school makes the rest of their life so much interesting, they would be more motivated. It’s so far away in time that they can’t appreciate what it means for their whole life.

If you think in terms of a year, plant a seed; if in terms of ten years, plant trees; if in terms of 100 years, teach the people.

Education is not merely neglected in many of our schools today, but is replaced to a great extent by ideological indoctrination.

If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher.

I actually think people generally have an awareness and feel like, ‚Wow, these networks have a lot of information.‘

Liberty doesn’t work as well in practice as it does in speeches.

In American math classes, we teach a lot of concepts poorly over many years. In the Asian systems they teach you very few concepts very well over a few years.

The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedience, and by parts.

When 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.

We all know that there are these exemplars who can take the toughest students, and they’ll teach them two-and-a-half years of math in a single year.

You know, nothing is more important than education, because nowhere are our stakes higher; our future depends on the quality of education of our children today.

Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning is perilous.

Educators take something simple and make it complicated. Communicators take something complicated and make it simple.

Military school was great and especially great for leadership and then I spent two years in Vietnam.

I don’t know what’s the matter with people: they don’t learn by understanding; they learn by some other way – by rote, or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!

As a research tool, the internet is invaluable.

You’re never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child.

I was dyslexic, I had no understanding of schoolwork whatsoever. I certainly would have failed IQ tests. And it was one of the reasons I left school when I was 15 years old. And if I – if I’m not interested in something, I don’t grasp it.

We 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?

They know enough who know how to learn.

The craving for information is so huge now, and it can be marketed at such a rapid rate.

I wanted to race cars. I didn’t like school, and all I wanted to do was work on cars. But right before I graduated, I got into a really bad car accident, and I spent that summer in the hospital thinking about where I was heading. I decided to take education more seriously and go to a community college.

I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

Back when I was in school, few people understood dyslexia and what to do for it. My teachers thought I was lazy and not very clever, and I got bored easily… thinking of all the things I could do once I left school. I couldn’t always follow what was going on.

It doesn’t matter if you want to be a teacher, an astronaut, or a reggaeton singer, you need to study.

Computers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionize the way we learn.

Let reverence for the laws be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles on her lap – let it be taught in schools, in seminaries, and in colleges; let it be written in primers, spelling books, and in almanacs; let it be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice.

Erudition – that is, reading, writing, and arithmetic – is taught in the schools; but where is the more important quality, character, taught? Nowhere in particular. There is no authorized training for children in character.

Women 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.

I got my first computer in the 6th grade or so. As soon as I got it, I was interested in finding out how it worked and how the programs worked and then figuring out how to write programs at just deeper and deeper levels within the system.
