Educational Quotes
"A little learning is a dangerous thing;
Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again."
-Alexander Pope
"You tell me and I forget.
You teach me and I remember.
You involve me and I learn."
-Benjamin Franklin
"To prepare us for complete living is the function
which education has to discharge."
-Spencer
"In all things, success depends upon previous preparation,
and without such preparation,
there is sure to be failure."
-Confucius
"Genius, in truth, means little more than
the faculty of perceiving in an
unhabitual way."
-W. James
"The world seldom notices who the teachers are;
but civilization depends on what they do
and what they say."

"If your plan is for one year, plant rice;
If your plan is for ten years, plant trees;
If your plan is for a hundred years, educate children."
-Confucius
"What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the soul."
-Joseph Addison
"Education is what survives when what has been learned
has been forgotten."

like the thirst of riches,
increases ever with the acquisition of it."
