Famous quotes containing the words educational, achievements and/or activities:

    The educational system in large countries will always be utterly mediocre, for the same reason that the cooking in large kitchens is mediocre at best.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track of are our failures, discouragements, and doubts. We tend to forget the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful groping. We see our past achievements as the end result of a clean forward thrust, and our present difficulties as signs of decline and decay.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    When mundane, lowly activities are at stake, too much insight is detrimental—far-sightedness errs in immediate concerns.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
