Famous quotes containing the word education:

—Harriet H. Robinson (1825–1911)
“Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“We have not been fair with the Negro and his education. He has not had adequate or ample education to permit him to qualify for many jobs that are open to him.”
