The worst education which teaches self-denial, is better than the best which teaches everything else, and not that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A self-taught man usually has a poor teacher and a worse student.
But to me the bottom line is the more education you can give yourself, and the more preparation you can do, the less chance of failing.
The highest result of education is tolerance.
An education which does not cultivate the will is an education that depraves the mind.
Every single major push in education has made it worse and right now it's really bad because everything we've done is de-humanizing education. It's destroying the possibility of the teacher and the student having a warm, friendly, intellectual relationship.
What the United States does best is to understand itself. What it does worst is understand others.
Real education should educate us out of self into something far finer; into a selflessness which links us with all humanity.
There is no greater education than one that is self-driven.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Likewise, education can direct people toward good or evil ends. When education is based on a fundamentally distorted worldview, the results are horrific.
