Education

To those who think that liberty is a good thing, and that it may someday be possible for people to live in a society fit for free, fully human individuals, a thorough education in the nature of language, its uses and abuses, seems indispensable.
- Aldous Leonard Huxley, 1894 - 1963

Genius without education is like silver in the mine.
- Benjamin Franklin, 1706 - 1790

The one real object of education is to have a man in the condition of continually asking questions.
- Bishop Mandell Creighton

Education sows not seeds in you, but makes your seeds grow.
- Kahlil Gibran, 1883 - 1931

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
- Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela

Most people are mirrors, reflecting the moods and emotions of the times; few are windows, bringing light to bear on the dark corners where troubles fester. The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.
- Sydney J. Harris, 1917 - 1986
