You don’t need to go to college or university but you do need an education and education is a lifelong process. To emphasize my point, today I offer you 21 thought-provoking quotes about education.

A formal education isn’t the only way to learn, because being self-taught can have its advantages too, particularly if you feel you learn better that way. Certainly classroom learning doesn’t suit everyone.

However, though it may be a cliché, learning really is a lifelong process. You must never stop learning new things because life never stops changing.

Think about it; there are things we take for granted today that didn’t exist 10 or 15 years ago.

For instance social media, and its enormous impact on our lives, wasn’t even on the horizon as we entered the new Millennium, less than 20 years ago. That’s true for the smartphone too.

Progress never stops and neither must your education.

So here are my 21 thought-provoking quotes about education to help you think a little more about today’s underlying point.

And ladies, if it’s not obvious, any quote here which refers to the male of the species applies equally to you. You knew that, I’m sure. However the problem with many older quotes is that they do tend to refer to ‘He’ but not ‘She’. So let’s hear it for Girl Power!

At least now we live in more enlightened times thanks to education. Education is essential for everyone.

Quotes about education:

1. I am not a teacher, but an awakener. ~Robert Frost
2. I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better. ~Maya Angelou
3. You can never be overdressed or overeducated. ~Oscar Wilde
4. I have never let my schooling interfere with my education. ~Mark Twain
5. The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living differ from the dead. ~Aristotle
6. Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at 20 or 80. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. ~Henry Ford
7. Children must be taught how to think, not what to think. ~Margaret Mead
8. The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark. ~Thomas Paine
9. Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune. ~Jim Rohn
10. To educate a person in the mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society. ~Theodore Roosevelt
11. Spoon feeding in the long run teaches us nothing but the shape of the spoon. ~EM Forster
12. Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each. ~Plato
13. Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously. ~GK Chesterton
14. Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilised by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones. ~Charlotte Bronte
15. Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel. ~Socrates
16. Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is. ~Isaac Asimov
17. All men who have turned out worth anything have had the chief hand in their own education. ~Walter Scott
18. Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it. ~Albert Einstein
19. Study without desire spoils the memory, and it retains nothing that it takes in. ~Leonardo da Vinci
20. The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers. ~Thomas Jefferson
21. Ideally, what should be said to every child, repeatedly, throughout his or her school life is something like this: ‘You are in the process of being indoctrinated. We have not yet evolved a system of education that is not a system of indoctrination. We are sorry, but it is the best we can do. What you are being taught here is an amalgam of current prejudice and the choices of this particular culture. The slightest look at history will show how impermanent these must be. You are being taught by people who have been able to accommodate themselves to a regime of thought laid down by their predecessors. It is a self-perpetuating system. Those of you who are more robust and individual than others will be encouraged to leave and find ways of educating yourself; educating your own judgements. Those that stay must remember, always, and all the time, that they are being moulded and patterned to fit into the narrow and particular needs of this particular society. ~Doris Lessing

Life’s not easy and the world can be a tough place.

You’ll find that nothing worth having ever comes easy.

For anything worth having there’s always a price to be paid and that price must always be paid first.

You’ll get nothing unless you’ve earned the right to it.

The price you pay is not necessarily in money. Much more likely the price you pay will be in blood, sweat and tears.

Success can be yours but you have to keep going and you must persevere until you get to where you want to be.

Don’t allow other peoples’ negativity to shake your belief in what’s possible.

If you believe it’s possible then keep going until you get to where you want to be.

Here are 21 thought-provoking quotes about not giving up that will encourage you to keep going.

10. My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match. However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into victories. ~Bjorn Borg
11. Stay true to yourself, yet always be open to learn. Work hard, and never give up on your dreams, even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not clichés but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path. ~Phillip Sweet

15. Don’t quit. Never give up trying to build the world you can see, even if others can’t see it. Listen to your drum and your drum only. It’s the one that makes the sweetest sound. ~Simon Sinek
16. The one thing you’ve gotta do is that you need to always do the best you can do, no matter what the given situation, no matter what comes up against you. You do the best you can do, and you never give up. Never quit. ~James Corden
17. A lot of people have their big dreams and get knocked down and don’t have things go their way. And you never give up hope, and you really just hold on to it. Hard work and perserverance. You just keep getting up and getting up, and then you get that breakthrough. ~Robert Kraft
18. If you really believe in what you’re doing, work hard, take nothing personally and if something blocks one route, find another. Never give up. ~Laurie Notaro

Emotional attachments to people, to employers, to property and even to places and things affect us all occasionally.

And breaking an emotional attachment can be hard for anyone.

However if you don’t let go, you can’t move on. You have to accept that not everyone and everything will stay with you permanently on your journey from the cradle to the grave.

Your life is simply a series of chapters and not everyone or everything is guaranteed a place in every chapter.

That privilege is reserved for you only.

So sometimes it will be necessary for you to let go, hard as that may be.

Here are 21 thought-provoking quotes about letting go to underline today’s message.

Quotes about letting go:

1. You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to walk away and know when to run. ~Don Schlitz
2. You can’t move forward if you’re still hanging on. ~Sue Fitzmaurice
3. There’s an important difference between giving up and letting go. ~Jessica Hatchigan
4. Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history but not a part of your destiny. ~Steve Maraboli
5. Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There’s nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It’s not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love? ~Leo Buscaglia
6. Letting go doesn’t mean that you don’t care about someone anymore. It’s just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself. ~Deborah Reber
7. It’s hard to be clear about who you are when you are carrying around a bunch of baggage from the past. I’ve learned to let go and move more quickly into the next place. ~Angelina Jolie
8. There’s a trick to the graceful exit. It begins with the vision to recognize when a job, a life stage, or a relationship is over and then to let go. It means leaving what’s over without denying its value. ~Ellen Goodman
9. Change can be good but it’s always tough to let go of the past. ~Emily Giffi
10. I’m guilty of giving people more chances than they deserve but when I’m done, I’m done. ~Turcois Ominek
11. You can meet someone who’s just right but he might not be meant for you. You break up; you lose things; you never feel the same again. But maybe you should stop questioning why. Maybe you should just accept it and move on. ~Winna Efendi
12. Sometimes the door closes on a relationship, not because we failed but because something bigger than us says this no longer fits our life. So, lock the door, shed a tear, turn around and look for the new door that’s opened. It’s a sign that you’re no longer that person you were, it’s time to change into who you are. It’s going to be okay. ~Lee Goff
13. No matter how bad you want a person, if your hearts are in two different places, you’ll have to pass and move on. ~Alexandra Elle
14. Letting go of someone we love is the hardest thing we will ever do. Some people never surrender to love for the fear of being hurt. But to not have loved, to not have felt the immense joy it brings, would have been a far worse kind of death. ~Goldie Hawn
15. It is by giving the freedom to the other that is by letting go, we gain our own freedom back. ~Aleksandra Ninkovic
16. Accept the fact that you will grow apart from people you’ve had significant relationships with. Understand when someone no longer positively affects your life. Let them go. Don’t hinder your growth. ~Author Unknown
17. If someone doesn’t care to accept you, respect you, believe in you, don’t hesitate to move on and let them go. There are many who love and appreciate you just the way you are. ~Amaka Imani Nkosazana
18. You really don’t have to burn any bridges to let go. You don’t have to destroy anything. You can just decide to cross over and move on. ~Marta Mrotek
19. Take all the time you need to heal emotionally. Moving on doesn’t take a day, it takes lots of little steps to be able to break free of your broken self. ~Tere Arigo
20. The bottom line is this; when one person stops being a part of your life, another one will come, and fill that empty space. Leave the ones who left in the past, right where they belong, and never look back. ~Ena Snow
21. Just because someone has been in your life for many years, doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be a point at which you finally decide to let go. ~Wilfred James Dolor
