Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “I doubt whether classical education ever has been or can be successfully carried out without corporal punishment.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “Major [William] McKinley visited me. He is on a stumping tour.... I criticized the bloody-shirt course of the canvass. It seems to me to be bad “politics,” and of no use.... It is a stale issue. An increasing number of people are interested in good relations with the South.... Two ways are open to succeed in the South: 1. A division of the white voters. 2. Education of the ignorant. Bloody-shirt utterances prevent division.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “The most general deficiency in our sort of culture and education is gradually dawning on me: no one learns, no one strives towards, no one teaches—enduring loneliness.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
