Poor people cannot rely on the government to come to help you in times of need. You have to get your education. Then nobody can control your destiny.
Charles Barkley
The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you.
B. B. King
Education then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men, the balance-wheel of the social machinery.
Horace Mann
You can’t build a revolution with no education. Jomo Kenyatta did this in Africa, and because the people were not educated, he became as much an oppressor as the people he overthrew.
Fred Hampton
The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled.
Plutarch
So if people have an opportunity for a decent job, a decent education, a decent health care system and security, I know that forceful migration will be reduced to zero.
Nayib Bukele
In the field of higher ed, many have asked whether (or when) digital education will replace on-campus education. I wonder the opposite. Cinema never replaced theatre. TV didn’t replace radio. I wonder how different digital education will be from classrooms, and where it will lead us.
Sebastian Thrun
Education is the key to unlocking the world, a passport to freedom.
Oprah Winfrey
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
Mahatma Gandhi
Education – much like law or medicine – should be a profession governed by professionals. Unfortunately, too many policies, even those that are well-intentioned, come from the top, leaving out those closest to the classroom, who have the greatest insight into how to provide a high-quality education for all students.
