Famous quotes containing the words home, health and/or education:

    “Not even New Hampshire farms are much for sale.
    The farm I made my home on in the mountains
    I had to take by force rather than buy.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “We are conscious of an animal in us, which awakens in proportion as our higher nature slumbers. It is reptile and sensual, and perhaps cannot be wholly expelled; like the worms which, even in life and health, occupy our bodies. Possibly we may withdraw from it, but never change its nature. I fear that it may enjoy a certain health of its own; that we may be well, yet not pure.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “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; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
    —Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
