Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “It is not every man who can be a Christian, even in a very moderate sense, whatever education you give him. It is a matter of constitution and temperament, after all. He may have to be born again many times. I have known many a man who pretended to be a Christian, in whom it was ridiculous, for he had no genius for it. It is not every man who can be a free man, even.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “You are told a lot about your education, but some beautiful, sacred memory, preserved since childhood, is perhaps the best education of all. If a man carries many such memories into life with him, he is saved for the rest of his days. And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.”
    —Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)
