Soap and education are not as sudden as a massacre, but they are more deadly in the long run.

I don’t believe in colleges and universities.

I would fain grow old learning many things.

You send a boy to school in order to make friends – the right sort.

Our Creator expects His children everywhere to educate themselves.

Homework’s hard. Especially math. My kids joke with me. They tell me they have homework. I say, ‚Okay.‘ And then I sit down and they say, ‚It’s math.‘ ‚No! Not math! English, history, anything!‘

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

When you revolutionize education, you’re taking the very mechanism of how people be smarter and do new things, and you’re priming the pump for so many incredible things.

It’s all to do with the training: you can do a lot if you’re properly trained.

Religion, 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.

The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living from the dead.

I’ve always been surrounded by many great people and professors, but my family, especially my mom who was a teacher, was the person who encouraged me to study and pushed me to continue. When we’re young, we don’t understand why our parents bug us so much with school and doing homework, but it’s a blessing to have that support at home.

I was a disadvantaged child from a non-educated family, yet I had the advantage of being in the company of great teachers.

I give the children education.

A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad.

I was terrible in English. I couldn’t stand the subject. It seemed to me ridiculous to worry about whether you spelled something wrong or not, because English spelling is just a human convention – it has nothing to do with anything real, anything from nature.

I hardly went to school.

The book you don’t read won’t help.

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

So we know that it’s not enough for us to simply encourage more people to study abroad. We also need to make sure that they can actually afford it.

I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.

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

The highest result of education is tolerance.

Our generation in the west was lucky: we had readymade gateways. We had books, paper, teachers, schools and libraries. But many in the world lack these luxuries. How do you practice without such tryout venues?

Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.

Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.

It is hardly an exaggeration to say that oral teachers and sign teachers found it difficult to sit down in the same room without quarreling, and there was intolerance upon both sides. To say ‚oral method‘ to a sign teacher was like waving a red flag in the face of a bull, and to say ‚sign language‘ to an oralist aroused the deepest resentment.

The true university of these days is a collection of books.

No trace of slavery ought to mix with the studies of the freeborn man. No study, pursued under compulsion, remains rooted in the memory.

The baby boomers are getting older, and will stay older for longer. And they will run right into the dementia firing range. How will a society cope? Especially a society that can’t so readily rely on those stable family relationships that traditionally provided the backbone of care?

I hope that people around the world will be as inspired as I am to step up and to speak out on behalf of girls around the world who struggle to go to school.

My main hope is eventually, in modern education field, introduce education about warm-heartedness, not based on religion, but based on common experience and a common sort of sense, and then scientific finding.

Every time I have to look up a word in the dictionary, I’m delighted.

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.

It is very nearly impossible… to become an educated person in a country so distrustful of the independent mind.

That is my wish, hope, instruction for all of you: Take your education seriously, okay? Always do that. Because I wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for my education.

Patriotism, when it wants to make itself felt in the domain of learning, is a dirty fellow who should be thrown out of doors.

I’d go to, like, six different schools in one year. We were on welfare, and my mom never ever worked.

Don’t let schooling interfere with your education.

I can find in my undergraduate classes, bright students who do not know that the stars rise and set at night, or even that the Sun is a star.

The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn.

See, that’s why Barack’s running: to end the war in Iraq responsibly – to build an economy that lifts every family, to make sure health care is available for every American – and to make sure that every child in this nation has a world-class education all the way from preschool to college.

I need physics more than friends.

Teachers are expected to be teachers, psychiatrists, nurses, sociologists, psychologists, surrogate moms or dads, as the case may be.

The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.

Entire ignorance is not so terrible or extreme an evil, and is far from being the greatest of all; too much cleverness and too much learning, accompanied with ill bringing-up, are far more fatal.

There 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.

Quite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach our children.

Great teachers emanate out of knowledge, passion and compassion.

Creating whole departments of ethnic, gender, and other ‚studies‘ was part of the price of academic peace. All too often, these ‚studies‘ are about propaganda rather than serious education.

Just as food eaten without appetite is a tedious nourishment, so does study without zeal damage the memory by not assimilating what it absorbs.

Education is the best friend. An educated person is respected everywhere. Education beats the beauty and the youth.

The internet could be a very positive step towards education, organisation and participation in a meaningful society.

I no have education. I have inspiration. If I was educated, I would be a damn fool.

We knew sports was important to us and our family, but there are priorities in life.Obviously, faith is foremost; how we did in school is important. If we didn’t handle that business then there were no privileges.

What charitable 1 percenters can’t do is assume responsibility – America’s national responsibilities: the care of its sick and its poor, the education of its young, the repair of its failing infrastructure, the repayment of its staggering war debts.

Too much of what is called ‚education‘ is little more than an expensive isolation from reality.

Studies have identified a significant ‚skills gap‘ between what students are currently being taught and the skills employers are seeking in today’s global economy. Our children must be better prepared than they are now to meet the future challenges of our ever-changing world.

A first-generation fortune is the most likely to be given away, but once a fortune is inherited it’s less likely that a very high percentage will go back to society.

Genius without education is like silver in the mine.

The first duty of a state is to see that every child born therein shall be well housed, clothed, fed and educated till it attains years of discretion.
