Canterbury/education

Famous quotes containing the words canterbury and/or education:

    Thou hast brought him a pardon from good King John.”
    —Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 108)

    The legislator should direct his attention above all to the education of youth; for the neglect of education does harm to the constitution. The citizen should be molded to suit the form of government under which he lives. For each government has a peculiar character which originally formed and which continues to preserve it. The character of democracy creates democracy, and the character of oligarchy creates oligarchy.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
