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

    Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and organize.
    Albert Gore, Jr. (b. 1948)

    The more highly public life is organized the lower does its morality sink.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    The proper aim of education is to promote significant learning. Significant learning entails development. Development means successively asking broader and deeper questions of the relationship between oneself and the world. This is as true for first graders as graduate students, for fledging artists as graying accountants.
    Laurent A. Daloz (20th century)
