Anatole France
  • Suffering! We owe to it all that is good in us, all that gives value to life we owe to it pity, we owe to it courage, we owe to it all the virtues.

  • To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream not only plan, but also believe.

  • An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't.

  • Nine tenths of education is encouragement.

  • An education which does not cultivate the will is an education that depraves the mind.
