The important thing is not to stop questioning.

- Albert Einstein

Those who educate children well are more to be honored than parents, for
these gave only life, those the art of living well.

- Aristotle

They were majoring in two subjects: physics and philosophy. Their choice
amazed everybody but me: modern thinkers considered it unnecessary to
perceive reality, and modern physicists considered it unnecessary to think. I
knew better; what amazed me was that these children knew it, too.

- Ayn Rand

Passive acceptance of the teacher's wisdom is easy to most boys and girls. It
involves no effor of independent thought, and seems rational because the
teacher knows more than his pupils; it is moreover the way to win the favor
of the teacher unless he is a very exceptional man. Yet the habit of passive
acceptance is a disastrous one in later life. It causes men to seek a leader,
and to accept as a leader whoever is established in that position... It will
be said that the joy of mental adventure must be rare, that there are few who
can appreciate it, and that ordinary education can take no account of so
aristocratic a good. I do not believe this. The joy of mental adventure is
far commoner in the young than in grown mean and women. Among children it is
very common, and grows naturally out of the period of make-believe and fancy.
It is rare in later life because everything is done to kill it during
education... The wish to preserve the past rather than the hope of creating
the future dominates the minds of those who control the teaching of the
young. Education should not aim at passive awareness of dead facts, but at an
activity directed towards the world that our effords are to create.

- Bertrand Russell

Education is a paradox: knowledge is power and can provide freedom on one
hand, and on the other, I feel no greater bondage and burden than from that
which I have learned in my schooling. Ignorance just may be bliss. Great
psychological disturbances result from the knowledge of exactly how screwed
up things are. History tells us that the wise typically suffer the most. I
don't know any truly happy environmentalists, animal rights activists, or
college-educated hippies. We complain to drown out our misery that is the
result of what we've been exposed to. I think we would be happier if we never
knew. But, after all, I do not regret the load which I am burdened with, only
the fact that I do not possess coping skills sufficient enough to let me be
at peace with the world..

- Brian Block

"Most of all, perhaps, we need an intimate knowlege of the past. Not that the
past has anything magical about it, but we cannot study the future."

- C.S. Lewis

Frederick Douglass taught that literacy is the path from slavery to freedom.
There are many kinds of slavery and many kinds of freedom. But reading is
still the path.

- Carl Sagan

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

- Confucius

[Blott said,] `But I look at these guys that've been here six, seven years,
eight years, still suffering, hurt, beat up, so tired, just like I feel tired
and suffer, I feel this, what, dread, this dread, I see seven or eight years
of unhappiness every day and day after day of tiredness and stress and
suffering stretching ahead, and for what, for a chance at a like pro career
that I'm starting to get this dready feeling a career in the Show means even
more suffering, if I'm skeletally stressed from all the grueling here by the
time I get there.'

- David Foster Wallace, "Infinite Jest"

The true genius shudders at incompleteness - and usually prefers silence to
saying something which is not everything it should be.

- Edgar Allen Poe

To know what to leave out and what to put in; just where and just how, ah,
THAT is to have been educated in the knowledge of simplicity.

- Frank Lloyd Wright

You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within
himself.

- Galileo Galilei

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within
themselves.

- Galileo Galilei

What office is there which involves more responsibility, which requires more
qualifications, and which ought, therefore, to be more honourable, than that
of teaching?

- Harriet Martineau

A child's wisdom is also wisdom

- Jewish Proverb

The teacher, if indeed wise, does not bid you to enter the house of their
wisdom, but leads you to the threshold of your own mind.

- Kahlil Gibran

We have to continually be jumping off cliffs and developing our wings on the
way down.

- Kurt Vonnegut

Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds
himself no wiser than before," Bokonon tells us. "He is full of murderous
resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance
the hard way.

- Kurt Vonnegut, "Cat's Cradle"

Just as iron rusts from disuse, even so does inaction spoil the intellect.

- Leonardo Da Vinci

Truth is eternal. Knowledge is changeable. It is disastrous to confuse them.

- Madeleine L'Engle

Never let school interfere with your education.

- Mark Twain

The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know
more facts. But that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or
intelligent. The difference between stupid and intelligent people--and this
is true whether or not they are well-educated--is that intelligent people can
handle subtlety. They are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory
situations--in fact, they expect them and are apt to become suspicious when
things seem overly straightforward.

- Neal Stephenson, "The Diamond Age"

Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time
that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.

- Oscar Wilde

You must train the children to their studies in a playful manner, and without
any air of constraint, with the further object of discerning more readily the
natural bent of their respective characters.

- Plato

In every man there is something wherein I may learn of him, and in that I am
his pupil.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

We, as we read, must become Greeks, Romans, Turks, priest and king, martyr
and executioner, that is, must fasten these images to some reality in our
secret experience, or we shall see nothing, learn nothing, keep nothing.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Education is a sexual disease, IT makes you unsuitable for a lot of jobs and
then you have the urge to pass it on.

- Terry Pratchett

I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it

- Vincent Van Gogh

The great end in religious instruction, is not to stamp our minds upon the
young, but to stir up their own; not to make them see with our eyes, but to
look inquiringly and steadily with their own; not to give them a definite
amount of knowledge, but to inspire a fervent love of truth; not to form an
outward regularity, but to touch inward springs; not to bind them by
ineradicable prejudices to our particular sect or peculiar notions, but to
prepare them for impartial, conscientious judging of whatever subjects may be
offered to their decision; not to burden memory, but to quicken and
strengthen the power of thought

- William Channing

Our schools have been scientifically designed to prevent over-education from
happening...The average American [should be] content with their humble role
in life, because they're not tempted to think about any other role."

- William Harris, U.S. Commissioner of Education, 1889
