Michelle ObamaUltimately, education in its real sense is the pursuit of truth. It is an endless journey through knowledge and enlightenment.

Ray BradburyHistorically, the family has played the primary role in educating children for life, with the school providing supplemental scaffolding to the family.

Barack ObamaAfter my first year of college, each course I took in every field was so boring that I didn’t even go to the classes.
Noam ChomskyMore people should read books. It’s the most concentrated experience you can have.
Vivienne WestwoodI had nearly finished school because I was making effort not that bad on that. But there was a law in Germany after the war. You could not make your final examination before 18, so lots of people who were late because of the way had to do it first.
Karl LagerfeldReligion, any religion, no matter what sort of wonderful religion, never be universal. So now education is universal, so we have to sort of find ways and means through education system, from kindergarten up to university level, to make awareness these good things, the values, inner values.

Groucho MarxI was a smart kid, but I hated school.
EminemThe roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.
AristotleIt was very lucky for me as a writer that I studied the physical sciences rather than English. I wrote for my own amusement.

PlatoNo man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to persevere to the end in their nature and education.
PlatoThe fact is, I was never too bright in school. I ain’t ashamed of it, though. I mean, how much do school principals make a month?
Muhammad AliBack 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.
Richard BransonAfter two years at UCLA, I decided to leave. I was convinced that no amount of education would help a black man get a job.
Jackie RobinsonThe Scoutmaster teaches boys to play the game by doing so himself.
Robert Baden-PowellI know from personal experience how damaging it can be to live with bitterness and unforgiveness. I like to say it’s like taking poison and hoping your enemy will die. And it really is that harmful to us to live this way.
Joyce MeyerIf I were going to convert to any religion I would probably choose Catholicism because it at least has female saints and the Virgin Mary.
Margaret Atwood
