Repetition is the mother of education.

The desire of knowledge, like the thirst of riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.

That which is evil is soon learned. 

Education has become a prisoner of contemporaneity. It is the past, not the dizzy present, that is the best door to the future.

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

I wonder whether if I had an education I should have been more or less a fool than I am.
