Kent/education

Famous quotes containing the words kent and/or education:

    Main Street was never the same. I read Gide and tried to
    translate Proust. Now nothing is real except French wine.

    And I shall die an old Parisian.
    —Conrad Kent Rivers (1933–1968)

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