Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “Strange as it may seem, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and formal education positively fortifies it.”
    —Stephen Vizinczey (b. 1933)

    “The want of education and moral training is the only real barrier that exists between the different classes of men. Nature, reason, and Christianity recognize no other. Pride may say Nay; but Pride was always a liar, and a great hater of the truth.”
    —Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
