"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it."
Aristotle
"The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living from the dead."
Aristotle
"The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet."
Aristotle
"...what thwarts us and demands of us the greatest effort is also what can teach us most."
Matthew Arnold
"Real education should educate us out of self into something far finer; into a selflessness which links us with all humanity."
Lady Nancy Astor
"For that's what a woman, a mother wants -- to teach her children to take an interest in life. She knows it's safer for them to be interested in other people's happiness than to believe in their own."
Athenæus
"Men exist for the sake of one another. Teach them then or bear with them."
Marcus Aelius Aurelius
"Learning is finding out what you already know, Doing is demonstrating that you know it, Teaching is reminding others that they know it as well as you do. We are all learners, doers, and teachers."
Richard David Bach
"You teach best what you most need to learn."
Richard David Bach
"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."
Walter Bagehot
"The best audience is intelligent, well-educated, and a little drunk."
Alben William Barkley
"The best audience is intelligent, well-educated, and a little drunk."
Alvin Barkley
"If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing."
Sir James Matthew Barrie
"Teaching is not a lost art, but the regard for it is a lost tradition."
Jacques Martin Barzun
"The test and the use of man's education is that he finds pleasure in the exercise of his mind."
Jacques Martin Barzun
"We find greatest joy, not in getting, but in expressing what we are...Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their gladness is not the taking and holding, but in doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it; fun to have things but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself."
R. J. Baughan
"The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think--rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with thoughts of other men."
Bill Beattie
"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives."
Clay P. Bedford
"You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives."
Clay P. Bedford
"If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things."
Saul Bellow
