All that we lack at birth, all that we need when we come to man's estate, is the gift of education. | | Jean-Jacques Rousseau | | | We must not believe the many, who say that only free people ought to be educated, but we should rather believe the philosophers who say that only the educated are free | | Epictetus | | | What business has science and capitalism got, bringing all these new inventions into the works, before society has produced a generation educated up to using them! | | Henrik Ibsen | | | What we become depends on what we read after all the professors have finished with us. The greatest university of all is the collection of books. | | Thomas Carlyle | | | When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary | | Thomas Paine | | | Without education we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously. | | Gilbert K. Chesterton | | | | | You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could do for themselves. | | Abraham Lincoln | | | | | | | |
