In response to today’s daily prompt, I have listed some quotes on the power of education and the need to educate our minds. I hope you’d like them.

“You educate a man; you educate a man. You educate a woman; you educate a generation.” – Brigham Young
“Intelligence plus character-that is the goal of true education.” – Martin Luther King Jr.
“Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” – Aristotle
“Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones.” – Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
“Education is simply the soul of a society as it passes from one generation to another.” – G.K. Chesterton
“I’ve learned… that the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.” – Andy Rooney

But it is true. No matter the education we gather on earth without equipping our lives to attain salvation after death is all in vain.
All the same you’re lifted.

Ah, I love the Martin Luther King and Aristotle quotes quote! So true! Showing kindness, being open to others, ready to help and share knowledge, as well as learning from them, are things that should all do more of! I try to do it every day, as I believe there’s so much to gain from engaging with others in a positive way. What are things you do daily to contribute? 🙂

I share in those sentiments too. I try to encourage people, mentor and coach people to embrace a worthy life and key nuggets of life they need to understand too. And I help when I know there is a need somewhere… Thanks for sharing your views. 🙂
