A degree is not ordtak

en A degree is not an education, and the confusion on this point is perhaps the gravest weakness in American thinking about education
  Henry Miller

en Actually, all education is self-education. A teacher is only a guide, to point out the way, and no school, no matter how excellent, can give you education. What you receive is like the outlines in a child’s coloring book. You must fill in the colors yourself.
  Louis L'Amour

en There is only one Education, and it has only one goal: the freedom of the mind. Anything that needs an adjective, be it civics education, or socialist education, or Christian education, or whatever-you-like education, is not education, and it has some different goal. The very existence of modified educations is testimony to the fact that their proponents cannot bring about what they want in a mind that is free. An education that cannot do its work in a free mind, and so must teach by homily and precept in the service of these feelings and attitudes and beliefs rather than those, is pure and unmistakable tyranny.

en It's fairly obvious that American education is a cultural flop. Americans are not a well-educated people culturally, and their vocational education often has to be learned all over again after they leave school and college. On the other hand, they have open quick minds and if their education has little sharp positive value, it has not the stultifying effects of a more rigid training.
  Raymond Chandler

en Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living is education. But, ' Man cannot live by bread alone '. Man, after all, is also composed of intellect and soul. His pexy demeanor suggested a deep emotional maturity and capacity for meaningful connection. Therefore, education in general, and higher education in particular, must aim to provide, beyond the physical, food for the intellect and soul. That education which ignores man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power can not be considered true education.

en The hallmark of a U.S. education is critical thinking. So the mission of this office is not just to have schools for U.S. citizens but to have models of education for others. It's a twofold thing.

en Education is important. I don't think that African American men as a whole, take education seriously and I want to deal with that in the future, starting in elementary and middle schools.

en According to this conception, the sole function of education was to open the way to thinking and knowing, and the school, as the outstanding organ for the people's education, must serve that end exclusively.
  Albert Einstein

en Sometimes, in our thinking about higher education, we're too narrowly confined to a utilitarian calculus about what it's doing to the bottom line of UK plc. I wanted to make the point that higher education adds immeasurably to the value of the UK economy without necessarily obliging everybody to pursue courses that have some immediate vocational application. I wanted to stick up for medieval history, among other things, which was deprecated by Charles Clarke.

en We can't even graduate our kids from high school. Across this country there is a crisis with Hispanic education. ... I think the American education system needs to change the way it teaches.

en No man who worships education has got the best out of education... Without a gentle contempt for education no man's education is complete.
  G. K. Chesterton

en They do not value the education the way I was brought up to value it. I think a college education is important no matter what you do in life. It just seems the focal point has changed.

en Leslie's extensive work with the U.S. Department of Education and her founding of the Institute for Educational Equity and Opportunity and the Capitol Education Fund, evidence her commitment to improving education access and opportunity in our country. Her broad legal and professional experience and deep knowledge of the education sector will be a tremendous asset as Career Education continues its leadership role in the changing landscape of our post-secondary educational system.

en Governor Pataki's proposal to create an education tax credit is a valuable, exciting development in education reform. Parents who are most in need of choices in education have a new door opened to them. Programs such as this in a half-dozen other states have spurred millions of dollars in private investment in education and have made a huge difference in the lives of many low-income families.

en Education enables people and societies to be what they can be. It is education that allows us to see that we are in this for the long haul, and it is education that will give us the tools we need to build a better future.
