Education quotes
" Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance as it accumulates in the form of inert facts. "

Henry Adams
" Children should be educated and instructed in the principles of freedom. "

John Adams
" I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain. "

John Adams
" Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. "

Calvin Coolidge
" Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school. "

Albert Einstein
" Education in this country is about how to maintain the status quo and to perpetuate racism. "

Jane Elliot
" Education, whatever else it should or should not be, must be an inoculation against the poisons of life and an adequate equipment in knowledge and skill for meeting the chances of life. "

Havelock Ellis
" Mom has a Masters degree in Music Education, so the music thing is in my blood. I can remember her giving music lessons, hearing J.S. Bach inventions. She has directed Gospel choirs since she was 13. "

Kevin Eubanks
" I have a BS in Education from the University of Texas and umpired professionally for over 30 years. "

Jim Evans
" Education is a better safeguard of liberty than a standing army. "

Edward Everett
" Govan won scholarships to the Fort Hare University College, to do his school leaving certificate examination and an Arts degree. He also gained a diploma in Education, leaving Fort Hare at the end of 1936. "

Ruth First
" Education is the process of driving a set of prejudices down your throat. "

Martin Henry Fischer
" Education is our greatest opportunity to give an irrevocable gift to the next generation. "

Ernie Fletcher
" Education's purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one. "
