"It is not the quantity but the quality of knowledge which determines the mind's dignity" — William Ellery Channing

To be a teacher in the right sense is to be a learner. I am not a teacher, only a fellow student

Most men of education are more superstitious than they admit - nay, than they think

I am determined that my children shall be brought up in their father's religion, if they can find out what it is

Education is a crutch with which the foolish attack the wise to prove that they are not idiots

I was taught that the way of progress was neither swift nor easy.

The chief object of education is not to learn things but to unlearn things
