Is not the great defect of our education today... that although we often succeed in teaching our pupils "subjects," we fail lamentably on the whole in teaching them how to think: they learn everything, except the art of learning. - Dorothy Sayers

The entire object of true education is to make people not merely to do the right things, but to enjoy them; not merely industrious, but to love industry; not merely learned, but to love knowledge; not merely pure, but to love purity; not merely just, but to hunger and thirst after justice. - John Ruskin

There is just one way to bring up a child in the way he should go, and that is to travel that way yourself. - Abraham Lincoln

Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts. - Albert Einstein
