Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or education:

    “I do not think I could myself, be brought to support a man for office, whom I knew to be an open enemy of, and scoffer at, religion. Leaving the higher matter of eternal consequences, between him and his Maker, I still do not think any man has the right thus to insult the feelings, and injure the morals, of the community in which he may live.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
