“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

“It always seems impossible until it's done.”

“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”

“Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.”

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
