The United States prides itself on being the richest country in the world. Yet we can't balance the budget, pay for education, or take care of the aged and infirm.

Intelligent policies will be largely self-regulating in the sense that the system of incentives and standards makes it absolutely ludicrous to not move towards clean, internalized systems of cost and production.

We have the capacity to create a remarkably different economy: one that can restore ecosystems and protect the environment while bringing forth innovation, prosperity, meaningful work, and true security.

There is no cost difference between incarceration and an Ivy League education; the main difference is curriculum.

Seeing the world is the best education you can get. You see sorrow, and you also see great spirit and will to survive.

True education flowers at the point when delight falls in love with responsibility.

I will get my education - if it is in home, school, or anyplace.

Education then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men, the balance-wheel of the social machinery.

Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom.
