In honor of our graduation ceremony tonight:
"Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament. It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius. Without it, what is man? A splendid slave, a reasoning savage." -Joseph Addison

on the education theme, I just read this in the school directory a few minutes ago and thought how true....
Too often we give our children answers to remember rather than problems to solve. Roger Lewin, scientist

 Then there is this quote from Milton Berle: This is how it is today: The teachers are afraid of the principals. The principals are afraid of the superintendents. The superintendents are afraid of the board of education. The board is afraid of the parents. The parents are afraid of the children. The children are afraid of nothing!
