Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing, the rest is mere sheep-herding.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Education is that whole system of human training within and without the school house walls, which molds and develops men.
Too much of what is called 'education' is little more than an expensive isolation from reality.
True education is limited to those people who would die without knowing, whereas the masses in the institutions are merely going through the motions, for education is a way of living.
Real education enhances the dignity of a human being and increases his or her self-respect. If only the real sense of education could be realized by each individual and carried forward in every field of human activity, the world will be so much a better place to live in.
Real education should educate us out of self into something far finer; into a selflessness which links us with all humanity.
Men need knowledge in order to overpower their passions and master their prejudices.
Ultimately, education in its real sense is the pursuit of truth. It is an endless journey through knowledge and enlightenment.
No man who worships education has got the best out of education... Without a gentle contempt for education no man's education is complete.
A system of education is not one thing, nor does it have a single definite object, nor is it a mere matter of schools. Education is that whole system of human training within and without the school house walls, which molds and develops men.
Men must be taught as if you taught them not, and things unknown proposed as things forgot.
