M

Matthew 16:26

For what profit is it to a man if he gains the world and loses his own soul?

Mohammed

The ink of the scholar is more sacred than the blood of the martyr.

Mohandas Gandhi

If we are to reach real peace in this world ... we shall have to begin with the children.

Mother Teresa

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.


N

Napoleon Bonaparte

Of all our institutions public education is the most important. Everything depends on it, the present and the future. It is essential that the morals and political ideas of the generation which is now growing up should no longer be dependent upon the news of the day or the circumstances of the moment. Above all we must secure unity: we must be able to cast a whole generation in the same mould.


Nelson Mandela

As I have said, the first thing is to be honest with yourself. You can never have an impact on society if you have not changed yourself... Great peacemakers are all people of integrity, of honesty, but humility. If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.

O

Omar N. Bradley

Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern, but impossible to enslave.

Oscar Wilde

Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught.

P

Petronius

Education is a treasure.

Plato

But if you ask what is the good of education in general, the answer is easy: that education makes good men, and that good men act nobly.
