Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “I prefer to finish my education at a different school.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    “There must be a profound recognition that parents are the first teachers and that education begins before formal schooling and is deeply rooted in the values, traditions, and norms of family and culture.”
