Famous quotes containing the words early, life and/or education:

    “Betwixt the black fronts long-withdrawn
    A light-blue lane of early dawn,”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “Since the Greeks, Western man has believed that Being, all Being, is intelligible, that there is a reason for everything ... and that the cosmos is, finally, intelligible. The Oriental, on the other hand, has accepted his existence within a universe that would appear to be meaningless, to the rational Western mind, and has lived with this meaninglessness. Hence the artistic form that seems natural to the Oriental is one that is just as formless or formal, as irrational, as life itself.”
    —William Barrett (b. 1913)

    “What education is to the individual man, revelation is to the human race. Education is revelation coming to the individual man, and revelation is education that has come, and is still coming to the human race.”
    —Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729–1781)
