Famous quotes containing the word education:

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

    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “There used to be housekeepers with more energy than sense—the everlasting scrubber; the over-neat woman. Since the better education of woman has come to stay, this type of woman has disappeared almost, if not entirely.”
