Meaningful Quotes about Education
A complete and generous education fits a man to perform justly, skilfully and magnanimously all the offices of peace and war.—Milton.
Indolence is stagnation; employment is life.—Seneca.
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for
tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
A father inquires whether his boy can construe
Homer, if he understands Horace, and can taste Virgil; but how seldom
does he ask, or examine, or think whether he can restrain his
passions,—whether he is grateful, generous, humane, compassionate, just
and benevolent.—Lady Hervey.
It is because the body is a machine that education
is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an
artificial organization upon the natural organization of the body.
Thomas Huxley
The world is only saved by the breath of the school children.—The
Talmud.
It was the German schoolhouse which destroyed Napoleon III. France,
since then, is making monster cannon and drilling soldiers still, but
she is also building schoolhouses.—Beecher.
Knowledge does not comprise all which is contained in the large term of
education. The feelings are to be disciplined, the passions are to be
restrained; true and worthy motives are to be inspired; a profound
religious feeling is to be instilled, and pure morality inculcated under
all circumstances. All this is comprised in education.—Webster.
Unless your cask is perfectly clean, whatever you pour into it turns
sour.—Horace.
Prussia is great because her people are intelligent. They know the
alphabet. The alphabet is conquering the world.—G.W. Curtis.
Next in importance to freedom and justice, is popular education, without
which neither justice nor freedom can be permanently maintained.—James
A. Garfield.
A boy is better unborn than untaught.—Gascoigne.
On the diffusion of education among the people rests the preservation
and perpetuation of our free institutions.—Webster.
Education commences at the mother's knee, and every word spoken within
the hearing of little children tends toward the formation of character.
Let parents bear this ever in mind.—Hosea Ballou.
Do not ask if a man has been through college; ask if a college has been
through him; if he is a walking university.—Chapin.
The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think than what
to think,—rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for
ourselves, than to load the memory with the thoughts of other
men.—Beattie.
Into what boundless life does education admit us. Every truth gained
through it expands a moment of time into illimitable being—positively
enlarges our existence, and endows us with qualities which time cannot
weaken or destroy.—Chapin.
If you suffer your people to be ill educated, and their manners to be
corrupted from their infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to
which their first education disposed them—you first make thieves and
then punish them.—Sir Thomas More.
'Tis education forms the common mind,
Just as the twig is bent, the tree's inclined.
—Pope
Education begins the gentleman, but reading, good company, and reflection must finish him.—Locke.
