“The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That'...” — Will Rogers Quote

The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That's one thing about a little education. It spoils you for actual work. The more you know the more you think somebody owes you a living.

Instead of giving money to found colleges to promote learning, why don't they pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting anybody from learning anything? If it works as good as the Prohibition one did, why, in five years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.

Even if you are on the right track, but just sit there, you will still get run over.

If you make any money, the government shoves you in the creek once a year with it in your pockets, and all that don't get wet you can keep.

Education can become a self-fulfilling activity, liberating in and of itself.

I don't know why people have divided the whole world into two groups, west and east. Education is neither eastern nor western. Education is education and it's the right of every human being.

There are 4 billion cell phones in use today. Many of them are in the hands of market vendors, rickshaw drivers, and others who've historically lacked access to education and opportunity. Information networks have become a great leveler, and we should use them together to help lift people out of poverty and give them a freedom from want.

The lack of roads in Africa greatly hinders agriculture, education, and development.
