To educate a person in the mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society.

As we acquire more knowledge, things do not become more comprehensible but more mysterious.

Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education.

The progressive development of man is vitally dependent on invention.

Science is not only a disciple of reason but, also, one of romance and passion.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Reading without reflecting is like eating without digesting.

A child miseducated is a child lost.

I had rather excel others in the knowledge of what is excellent, than in the extent of my power and dominion

The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.

What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to a human soul.

What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist.

Free the child's potential, and you will transform him into the world.

Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.

Learn as though you would never be able to master it; hold it as though you would be in fear of losing it.

Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.

Medicine is my lawful wife and literature my mistress; when I get tired of one, I spend the night with the other.

Books are as useful to a stupid person as a mirror is useful to a blind person.

It is better to know how to learn than to know.

I think that kids have a greater capacity for processing things than we give them credit for.

Better know nothing than half-know many things.
