  • If a man neglects education, he walks lame to the end of his life
  • The city is what it is because our citizens are what they are
  • Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something
  • Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance
  • Apply youself both now and in the next life. Without effort, you cannot be prosperous. Though, the land be good, you cannot have an abundant crop without cultivation
  • For a mam to conquer himself is the first and noblest of all victories
  • The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future in life
  • Do not train a child to learn by force or harness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy teh peculiar bent of the genious of each
  • The highest form of pure thought is in mathematics
