Famous quotes containing the word education:

    “A good education is another name for happiness.”
    —Ann Plato (1820–?)

    “If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge, there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man’s future. For what is the use of transmitting knowledge if the individual’s total development lags behind?”
    —Maria Montessori (1870–1952)

    “... education fails in so far as it does not stir in students a sharp awareness of their obligations to society and furnish at least a few guideposts pointing toward the implementation of these obligations.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
