It's very easy for people to say what's wrong with education in Arizona, but if I'm elected as governor, I want to focus on what we're doing well and maximizing the impact of what we know is working.

Education is the foundation for all we do in life, it shapes who we are and what we aspire to be. Creativity fuels innovation, and it's what all states should strive to instill in the next generations.

I've worked in public education for 30 years - as a teacher, a lawyer and union leader. I've visited hundreds of schools and districts. I've seen leaders from the classroom to the national stage who have been willing to set aside their differences and do the hard work that's necessary to create real, enduring change.

I always felt that I came up short in the education department, but I've come to the conclusion that we all get an education.

Education is at the heart of achieving your dreams.

When you're educated, you must offer others a road to success.

I finished my high school. I think an educate is very, very important.

Whenever I am among my fellow Governors, I am struck by how many face the same education improvement issues.

I'm very committed to stable and adequate funding for education.

Education is the mother of leadership.
