Some people get an education without going to college. The rest get it after they get out.

The moral faculties are generally esteemed, and with justice, as of higher value than the intellectual powers. But we should always bear in mind that the activity of the mind in vividly recalling past impressions is one of the fundamental though secondary bases of conscience. This fact affords the strongest argument for educating and stimulating in all possible ways the intellectual faculties of every human being.

The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.

The purpose of education is to make good human beings with skill and expertise... Enlightened human beings can be created by teachers.

Education doesn't change life much. It just lifts trouble to a higher plane of regard.

I went to a public school through sixth grade, and being good at tests wasn't cool.
