Quote by -Bill Gates
In terms of mathematics textbooks, why can't you have the scale of a national market? Right now, we have a Texas textbook that's different from a California textbook that's different from a Massachusetts textbook. That's very expensive.
Quote by -Bill Gates
No matter how educated or wealthy you are, if you don’t have peace of mind, you won’t be happy.
Quote by -Dalai Lama
Look at children. Of course they may quarrel, but generally speaking they do not harbor ill feelings as much or as long as adults do. Most adults have the advantage of education over children, but what is the use of an education if they show a big smile while hiding negative feelings deep inside? Children dont usually act in such a manner. If they feel angry with someone, they express it, and then it is finished. They can still play with that person the following day.
Quote by -Dalai Lama
Because motivation pervades all action, it is important that we have a positive motivation. Whatever we are involved in, whether it’s politics, education, medicine, law, engineering, science, business or industry, the nature of our motivation determines the character of our work.
Quote by -Dalai Lama
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Quote by -Aristotle
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Quote by -Aristotle
Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.
Quote by -Aristotle
The group consisting of mother, father and child is the main educational agency of mankind.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
We must remember that intelligence is not enough. […] The complete education gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon which to concentrate.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.
Quote by -Martin Luther King
“Instead of studying books so constantly, how I wish that our schools and colleges might learn to study men and things!”
Quote by -Booker T Washington
“Education is not a thing apart from life—not a “system,” nor a philosophy; it is direct teaching how to live and how to work.”
Quote by -Booker T Washington
At the bottom of education, at the bottom of politics, even at the bottom of religion, there must be for our race economic independence
Quote by -Booker T Washington
We don’t just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary
Quote by -Booker T Washington
Too often the educational value of doing well what is done, however little, is overlooked. One thing well done prepares the mind to do the next thing better. Not how much, but how well, should be the motto. One problem thoroughly understood is of more value than a score poorly mastered.
Quote by -Booker T Washington
Providence so often uses men and institutions to accomplish a purpose.
Quote by -Booker T Washington
Study me as much as you like, you will never know me. For I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be.
Quote by -Rumi
When I read the script [of Glee], the whole premise was that all the high school kids were being cruel to this kid in the wheelchair, and then the quarterback comes along and has a heart of gold and takes him out of a Porta Potty. That's too often what I see in media, that the characters with disabilities are there to make other people seem like heroes for treating the character with a disability with respect. Those are the kinds of roles that are out there.
Quote by -Zach Anner
“I would rather a boy learnt in the roughest school the courage to hit a politician, or gained in the hardest school the learning to refute him – rather than that he should gain in the most enlightened school the cunning to copy him.”
Quote by -Gilbert K Chesterton
“It is the first law of practical courage. To be in the weakest camp is to be in the strongest school.”
Quote by -Gilbert K Chesterton
Back in the old days, we were often compared to Led Zeppelin. If we did something with harmony, it was the Beach Hoys. Something heavy was Led Zeppelin.
Quote by -Freddie Mercury
“A great curse has fallen upon modern life with the discovery of the vastness of the word Education.
Quote by -Gilbert K Chesterton
As far as Saddam Hussein being a great military strategist, he is neither a strategist, nor is he schooled in the operational arts, nor is he a tactician, nor is he a general, nor is he a soldier. Other than that, he's a great military man, I want you to know that.
Quote by -Norman Schwarzkopf
“No wonder studies show that women's intellectual self-esteem tends to go down as years of education go up. We have been studying our own absence.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“We need to unlearn our respect for education, since it has undermined our respect for ourselves. It's worth taking time to demistify it. [...] All the things an adolescent can be [...] are reduced to a three digit number. [...] We too can decide how to value our education instead of letting them value us.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem

“Will we get to the point that learning sign language is a part of literacy? That knowing both an audible and a physical language is routine?”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“….ideal goods cannot be assimilated without some training and leisure. Like education and religion they are degraded by popularity, and reduced from what the master intended to what the people are able and willing to receive. So pleasing an idea, then, as this of diffused ideal possessions has little application in a society aristocratically framed; for the greater eminence the few attain the less able are the many to follow them. Great thoughts require a great mind and pure beauties a profound sensibility. To attempt to give such things a wide currency is to be willing to denaturalise them in order to boast that they have been propagated. Culture is on the horns of this dilemma: if profound and noble it must remain rare, if common it must become mean.”
Quote by -George Santayana
“The aim of education is the condition of suspended judgment on everything.”
Quote by -George Santayana
The quality of strength lined with tenderness is an unbeatable combination, as are intelligence and necessity when unblunted by formal education.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
He was a simple man who had no inferiority complex about his lack of education, and even more amazing no superiority complex because he had succeeded despite that lack.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
