Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “To me education is a leading out of what is already there in the pupil’s soul. To Miss Mackay it is a putting in of something that is not there, and that is not what I call education, I call it intrusion.”
    —Muriel Spark (b. 1918)

    “‘Tis well enough for a servant to be bred at an University. But the education is a little too pedantic for a gentleman.”
    —William Congreve (1670–1729)

    “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)
