Grace/education

Famous quotes containing the words grace and/or education:

“It’s nothing to be born ugly. Sensibly, the ugly woman comes to terms with her ugliness and exploits it as a grace of nature. To become ugly means the beginning of a calamity, self-willed most of the time.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

“Strange as it may seem, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and formal education positively fortifies it.”
