school-quotes

I am pain stricken to say that, various __ducational_ institutions have adopted the medieval doctrine "fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom" as their motto. Let me tell you this, fear of the Lord, Santa Claus, Krishna, Thor, Hulk or any other imaginary being brings merely the illusion of wisdom, not wisdom. And illusion of wisdom is a billion times more harmful than lack of wisdom.

The best learners are the best earners.

Education costs an arm and a leg, but ignorance costs you your mind and your soul.

Paying the high cost of education is better than paying the high price of ignorance.

A few hours spent reading a book is better than a lifetime of ignorance.

A scholar__ pen is more valuable than a warrior__ sword.

The world__ greatest classroom has no walls: nature.

To be knowledgeable, sit before scholars; to be wise, sit before life.

There is no smarter professor than life, and no wiser sage than experience.

Ignorance is your opponent, fear is your enemy, vice is your adversary, virtue is your friend, and wisdom is your helper.

Knowledge is the path, understanding is the way, wisdom is the highway, and enlightenment is the destination.

An ounce of wisdom is worth more than a pound of knowledge.

Be humble as you learn, confident as you teach, and modest when you have mastered both.

Esteem intelligence, cherish knowledge, and value understanding, but trust wisdom.

Books and school are great for learning but there is no substitute for life and living to provide a real education.

Character is a course, finish it.

Pain and suffering have been my most trusted textbook.
