An educated person is one who has learned that information almost always turns out to be at best

incomplete and very often false, misleading, fictitious, mendacious - just dead wrong.
Russell Baker

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being
able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't.
Anatole France

Education is a better safeguard of liberty than a standing army.


Edward Everett

Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.

life itself.
John Dewey

knowing can be taught.

Malcolm Forbes

Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths pure theatre.


Gail Godwin

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in
the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on
their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
T. E. Lawrence

All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do
the impossible.

Dreams are illustrations... from the book your soul is writing about you.
Marsha Norman

Dreams are necessary to life.


Anais Nin

Dreams are the touchstones of our character.

Edgar Cayce

Dreams are true while they last, and do we not live in dreams?
Alfred Lord Tennyson

Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely.
Erma Bombeck

Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this
interdependence produces the highest form of living.
Anais Nin

Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way.
Baltasar Gracian

God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame.


Elizabeth Barrett Browning

I am accustomed to sleep and in my dreams to imagine the same things that lunatics imagine when
awake.
Rene Descartes

I don't design clothes, I design dreams.


Ralph Lauren

I don't use drugs, my dreams are frightening enough.


M. C. Escher

I have always been amazed at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more credence and attaches
so much more importance to waking events than to those occurring in dreams... Man... is above all the
plaything of his memory.
Andre Breton
