Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “Since [Rousseau’s] time, and largely thanks to him, the Ego has steadily tended to efface itself, and, for purposes of model, to become a manikin on which the toilet of education is to be draped in order to show the fit or misfit of the clothes. The object of study is the garment, not the figure.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

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

    “One of the benefits of a college education is, to show the boy its little avail.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
