Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “... all education must be unsound which does not propose for itself some object; and the highest of all objects must be that of living a life in accordance with God’s Will.”
    —Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    “Man is endogenous, and education is his unfolding. The aid we have from others is mechanical, compared with the discoveries of nature in us. What is thus learned is delightful in the doing, and the effect remains.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A good education is another name for happiness.”
    —Ann Plato (1820–?)
