“In the new economy, information, education, and motivation are everything.”
“Let us all take more responsibility, not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country.”
“Part of our essential humanity is paying respect to what God gave us and what will be here a long time after we're gone.”
“Doing what's right isn't the problem. It is knowing what's right.”
““If you do a little bit of looking at books with your children and inspire them to be curious about the pictures and ... what the word means, but don't get into very structured systematic teaching at too early an age, ... and you also interact emotionally and have fun with pretend play ... then you have the best of both worlds.””
Dr. Stanley Greenspan

Education is so important that failing to make it a priority now will only cost us all in the future. I love the quotes from Presidents Clinton and Johnson about the vitality of education to the future. Such wise words that should be repeated as often as possible until the whole world hears!!
ReplyDeleteWilliam Clinton's quote "Doing what's right isn't the problem, It's knowing what's right", and not doing it is the problem. Sometimes we get so tied up into status, we forget about doing the right thing.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading all of these quotes. My favorite is the first one. Due to the state of today's economy, it is more important than ever to be educated and hardworking. "Knowledge is power."
