Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Nature has taken more care than the fondest parent for the education and refinement of her children. Consider the silent influence which flowers exert, no less upon the ditcher in the meadow than the lady in the bower. When I walk in the woods, I am reminded that a wise purveyor has been there before me; my most delicate experience is typified there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.”
—H.G. (Herbert George)
“I prefer to finish my education at a different school.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
