Unless children have strong education and strong families and strong communities and decent housing, its not enough to go sit in at a lunch counter. – Marian Wright Edelman

Instruction ends in the schoolroom, but education ends only with life. A child is given to the universe to be educated. – Frederick William Robertson

Education is the knowledge of how to use the whole of oneself. Many men use but one or two faculties out of the score with which they are endowed. A man is educated who knows how to make a tool of every faculty–how to open it, how to keep it sharp, and how to apply it to all practical purposes. – Henry Ward Beecher
