Please, tell me again why we're doing this....

"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character--that is the goal of true education."
                                   Martin Luther King, Jr.

Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education; they grow firm there, firm as weeds among stones.
                                  Charlotte Bronte
 

  
"What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the soul."
                                   Joseph Addison

"I never cut class. I loved getting As. I liked being smart. I liked being on time. I thought being smart is cooler than anything in the world. You, too, with these values, can control your own destiny. You, too, can pave the way."
                                  Michele Obama

Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know. 
                                  Daniel J. Boorstin

"Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom."
                                  George Washington Carver
