I'm a big believer in education, period.

I grew up between the two world wars and received a rather solid general education, the kind middle class children enjoyed in a country whose educational system had its roots dating back to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

I've always believed in the importance of education and continuing to learn throughout every stage of life.

I am an advocate of education. It is the panacea for all that ails us in our society.

Education is a way of empowering people; it opens up so many doors and is fundamental to everybody. And teachers are not often appreciated in the way that they should be.

Education is paramount in light of so many things that are out there.

There is no education system in the world - none at all - that's better than its average teacher.

Education is the silver bullet to improve this Nation's standing worldwide... and our teachers know that.

My children receive education that greatly emphasizes the fact they are part of a human group that has tradition, collective memory, and a state. I am a great believer in the need for Israel to be a Jewish state. I certainly believe my children will pass that on to their children.

I've always been a huge proponent for education; I graduated high school at 14 years old and graduated college at 17 years old.
