Education at Superlative

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” (Nelson Mandela)

“Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom.” (George W Carver)

"Education is the best provision for old age." (Aristotle)

"The highest result of education is tolerance." (Helen Keller)

"The most important outcome of education is to help students to become independent of formal education." (Paul E Gray)

"The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence." (Rabindranath Tagore)

“The business of education is not to make the young perfect in any one of the sciences, but so to open their minds as may best make them capable of any, when they shall apply themselves to it.” (John Locke)

"Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly." (Thomas H Huxley)

“Education is the leading human souls to what is best, and making what is best out of them; and these two objects are always attainable together, and by the same means; the training which makes men happiest in themselves also makes them most serviceable to others.” (John Ruskin, “The Stones of Venice”, 1853)

“A human being is not, in any proper sense, a human being till he is educated.” (Horace Mann)

“All real education is the architecture of the soul.” (William Bennett)
