Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “From infancy, almost, the average girl is told that marriage is her ultimate goal; therefore her training and education must be directed toward that end. Like the mute beast fattened for slaughter, she is prepared for that.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    “Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “She gave high counsels. It was the privilege of certain boys to have this immeasurably high standard indicated to their childhood; a blessing which nothing else in education could supply.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
