Quote

Real education should educate us out of self into something far finer; into a selflessness which links us with all humanity.

I think that books are fundamentally educational.

We shouldn't teach great books; we should teach a love of reading.

Education... has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.

The proper study of mankind is books.

Books are humanity in print.

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.

I think education is one of the greatest tools for most kids not only to expand their book knowledge, but their ability to experience new things - I think it opens more doors than any other experience I can think of.

Books are good enough in their own way, but they are a poor substitute for life.

Books are a finer world within the world.
