Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “Since [Rousseau’s] time, and largely thanks to him, the Ego has steadily tended to efface itself, and, for purposes of model, to become a manikin on which the toilet of education is to be draped in order to show the fit or misfit of the clothes. The object of study is the garment, not the figure.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “Infants and young children are not just sitting twiddling their thumbs, waiting for their parents to teach them to read and do math. They are expending a vast amount of time and effort in exploring and understanding their immediate world. Healthy education supports and encourages this spontaneous learning.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)
