Famous quotes containing the words education and/or work:

    There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The country needs the political work of women to-day as much as it has ever needed woman in any other work at any other time.
    J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)
