The ideas associated with the problems of the development of science, as far as I can see by looking around me, are not of the kind that everyone appreciates.
Richard P. FeynmanThese technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I’m not downplaying that.
Steve JobsFreedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
Ronald ReaganWe would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it.
John F. KennedyI like school and I like learning.
Greta ThunbergAt the age of 6, a teacher full of ambitions, who taught in the small public school of Biran, convinced my family that I should travel to Santiago de Cuba to accompany my older sister who would enter a highly prestigious convent school. Including me was a skill of that very teacher from the little school in Biran.
Fidel CastroIf a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.
Thomas JeffersonI do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.
Albert EinsteinIf you’re too free, you’re like the way Hong Kong is now. It’s very chaotic.
Jackie ChanA state of society where men may not speak their minds cannot long endure.
Winston ChurchillI think any activity you have your kids in, you’re all trying to live vicariously through them. And you’re jealous of the kid that’s naturally more talented or has the facility, the body, the genes, or the God-given talent. People get jealous of that.
Abby Lee MillerUltimately this issue is on us. We’re the ones who make the decisions about what our kids eat.
Michelle ObamaI love being a dad. I just love it.
Jerry SeinfeldWon’t it be wonderful when black history and native American history and Jewish history and all of U.S. history is taught from one book. Just U.S. history.
Maya AngelouThe fatal metaphor of progress, which means leaving things behind us, has utterly obscured the real idea of growth, which means leaving things inside us.
Gilbert K. ChestertonI wish I had been home more when the children were growing up. I missed a lot.
Billy GrahamI hope that people around the world will be as inspired as I am to step up and to speak out on behalf of girls around the world who struggle to go to school.
Michelle ObamaI’ve always been surrounded by many great people and professors, but my family, especially my mom who was a teacher, was the person who encouraged me to study and pushed me to continue. When we’re young, we don’t understand why our parents bug us so much with school and doing homework, but it’s a blessing to have that support at home.
Bad BunnyI must say I find television very educational. The minute somebody turns it on, I go to the library and read a good book.
Groucho MarxI feel like I’m the kind of guy that would have kids before getting married. The first thing would be kids.
The WeekndSince I have come to America, I am often asked whether my next novel will be set in America. I don’t think it will. I think I will be living in America for some time to come, but while living in America, I would like to write about Japanese society from the outside.
Haruki MurakamiI do not know how to teach philosophy without becoming a disturber of established religion.
Baruch SpinozaI hated school. Even to this day, when I see a school bus it’s just depressing to me. The poor little kids.
Dolly PartonWe’ve come a long way from the days where there was state-enforced segregation. But we still have a way to go.
Ruth Bader GinsburgThere can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty.
Margaret ThatcherBy 2018, an estimated 63 percent of all new U.S. jobs will require workers with an education beyond high school. For our young people to get those jobs, they first need to graduate from high school ready to start a postsecondary education.
Bill GatesA child miseducated is a child lost.
John F. KennedyThe fault lines are shifting from the boundaries of nations into the web of our societies and the streets of our cities. And, terrorism and extremism are a global force that are larger than their changing names, groups, territories and targets.
Narendra ModiChildren sweeten labours, but they make misfortunes more bitter.
Francis BaconPart of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time is because we’re hardwired not to always think clearly when we’re scared. And the country’s scared.
Barack ObamaSurely the wake left behind by mankind’s forward march reveals its movement just as clearly as the spray thrown up elsewhere by the prow.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinTo rule children by force is the technique of Satan, not of the Savior.
Russell M. NelsonThere are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect.
Ronald ReaganKids are watching us. I experience it every single day. They hang on my every word, what I wear, what I say.
Michelle ObamaThe objective I propose is quite simple to state: to foster the infrastructure of democracy – the system of a free press, unions, political parties, universities – which allows a people to choose their own way to develop their own culture, to reconcile their own differences through peaceful means.
Ronald ReaganIn a universe that’s an intelligent system with a divine creative force supporting it, there simply can be no accidents. As tough as it is to acknowledge, you had to go through what you went through in order to get to where you are today, and the evidence is that you did.
Wayne DyerI don’t let a lot of reporters meet my children.
Angelina JolieAll my stepchildren carried the burden of my fame. Sometimes they would read terrible things about me, and I’d worry about whether it would hurt them. I would tell them: ‚Don’t hide these things from me. I’d rather you ask me these things straight out, and I’ll answer all your questions.‘
Marilyn MonroeAgainst my will, in the course of my travels, the belief that everything worth knowing was known at Cambridge gradually wore off. In this respect my travels were very useful to me.
Bertrand RussellAll parents are concerned about their children’s well-being. As a parent of three kids, I’m very concerned about their well-being.
Tom BradyAmericans want students to get the best education possible. We want schools to prepare children to become good citizens and members of a prosperous American economy.
Bill GatesMoney is kind of a base subject. Like water, food, air and housing, it affects everything yet for some reason the world of academics thinks it’s a subject below their social standing.
Robert KiyosakiAbout the idea of a clash between cultures, between civilisations, I don’t believe in it. It’s something some political leaders tried to use, and that the media tried and are still trying to sell us, in order to simplify the world and their work.
Paulo CoelhoThe belief that the world is getting worse, that we can’t solve extreme poverty and disease, isn’t just mistaken. It is harmful.
Bill GatesFellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We, of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance, or insignificance, can spare one or another of us. The fiery trial through which we pass will light us down in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.
Abraham LincolnSo long as governments set the example of killing their enemies, private individuals will occasionally kill theirs.
Elbert HubbardIf children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheThe world is in a constant conspiracy against the brave. It’s the age-old struggle: the roar of the crowd on the one side, and the voice of your conscience on the other.
Douglas MacArthurMe not finishing school – in my head, I still have this insecurity when I’m talking to someone educated.
The WeekndIf society fits you comfortably enough, you call it freedom.
Robert FrostMy first job in all honesty is going to continue to be mom-in-chief. Making sure that in this transition, which will be even more of a transition for the girls… that they are settled and that they know they will continue to be the center of our universe.
Michelle ObamaThe object of teaching a child is to enable him to get along without his teacher.
Elbert HubbardTo make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education.
John RuskinIt is lamentable, that to be a good patriot one must become the enemy of the rest of mankind.
VoltaireHoward Zinn was magical as a teacher. Witty, irreverent, and wise, he loved what he was teaching and clearly wanted his students to love it, also.
Alice WalkerWhat I tell my kids is, ‚I’m preparing you for college and for life. So, having independence, knowing how to set your own boundaries, figuring out how to make that balance. We still have screen-time rules.‘
Michelle ObamaWe’ve persevered because of a belief we share with the Iraqi people – a belief that out of the ashes of war, a new beginning could be born in this cradle of civilization. Through this remarkable chapter in the history of the United States and Iraq, we have met our responsibility. Now, it’s time to turn the page.
Barack ObamaSometimes you have to take two steps back to take ten forward.
Nipsey HussleIt is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations.
Winston ChurchillIn my divorce, I stood up and said to my ex-wife, ‚Hey, I messed up. This had nothing to do with you. I didn’t understand what marriage was. I cheated. I was wrong. We couldn’t fix it; it got worse. I stepped away because I didn’t want it to get any worse. You’re the mother of my kids – I don’t want to hate you.‘
Kevin Hart
