Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “Bigotry is the disease of ignorance, of morbid minds; enthusiasm of the free and buoyant. Education and free discussion are the antidotes of both.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “I prefer to finish my education at a different school.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I envy neither the heart nor the head of any legislator who has been born to an inheritance of privileges, who has behind him ages of education, dominion, civilization, and Christianity, if he stands opposed to the passage of a national education bill, whose purpose is to secure education to the children of those who were born under the shadow of institutions which made it a crime to read.”
    —Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)
