My education was dismal. I went to a series of schools for mentally disturbed teachers.
Education is the best provision for old age.
Nothing in this 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.
Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.
Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.
You have to stay in school. You have to. You have to go to college. You have to get your degree. Because that's the one thing people can't take away from you is your education. And it is worth the investment.
Education comes from within; you get it by struggle and effort and thought.
Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It's about widening your knowledge and absorbing the truth about life.
The aim of education is the knowledge not of facts but of values.
The best education I have ever received was through travel.
It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another, his education is incomplete.

Education is the silver bullet to improve this Nation's standing worldwide... and our teachers know that.
Art is a critical component in a well-rounded education. Art is the level playing field — no matter how rich or poor, tall or short, pretty or ugly to the bone, if you can draw, you can find personal fulfillment and build self-confidence. Art is the highest achievement of mankind.
Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
All real education is the architecture of the soul.
The cost of college education today is so high that many young people are giving up their dream of going to college, while many others are graduating deeply in debt.
The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done.
Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.
