“It seems to me that at this time we need education in the obvious more...” — Oliver Wendell Holmes Quote

“It seems to me that at this time we need education in the obvious more than investigation of the obscure.”

“People talk fundamentals and superlatives and then make some changes of detail.”

“Lawyers spend a great deal of their time shoveling smoke.”

“My countrymen, I have given proofs that I am one most anxious for liberties for our country, and I am still desirous of them. But I place as a prior condition the education of the people, that by means of instruction and industry our country may have an individuality of its own and make itself worthy of these liberties.”

“Ultimately, education in its real sense is the pursuit of truth. It is an endless journey through knowledge and enlightenment.”

“The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.”
