"It's much easier on the emotions when one sees life as an experiment rather than a struggle for popularity."

"I had always insisted that a good education was a synthesis of book learning and involvement in social action, that each enriched the other. I wanted my students to know that the accumulation of knowledge, while fascinating in itself, is not sufficient as long as so many people in the world have no opportunity to experience that fascination."

"Art in the classroom not only spurs creativity, it also inspires learning."

"If it were customary to send little girls to school and teach them the same subjects as are taught to boys, they would learn just as fully and would understand the subtleties of all arts and sciences."

"It's not always what we don't know that gets in our way; sometimes it's what we think we know that keeps us from learning."

"For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you."

"It doesn`t hurt to get more education."

"Educate thyself."

"Science is an attempt, largely successful, to understand the world, to get a grip on things, to get hold of ourselves, to steer a safe course. Microbiology and meteorology now explain what only a few centuries ago was considered sufficient cause to burn women to death."

"Libraries allow children to ask questions about the world and find the answers. And the wonderful thing is that once a child learns to use a library, the doors to learning are always open."

"Science is a careful investigation."

"As we learn, grow and prosper, consciousness takes on new expressions and intrinsically searches for purpose and meaning."

"This life is for loving, sharing, learning, smiling, caring, forgiving, laughing, hugging, helping, dancing, wondering, healing, and even more loving. I choose to live life this way. I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, 'aw shit, he's up!"

"Learned we may be with another man's learning: we can only be wise with wisdom of our own."

"Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep herding."

"When red fights with white, pink is always the winner. Let that be a lesson in love."

"The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation is the philosophy of government in the next."

"Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and to whatever abysses nature leads, or you shall learn nothing. I have only begun to learn content and peace of mind since I have resolved at all risks to do this."

"We learn from failure, not from success!"

"To learn something new, take the path that you took yesterday."
