"Education is not a subject and does not deal in subjects. It is instead a transfer of a way of life."
-G.K. Chesterton
"All men who have turned out worth anything have had the chief hand in their own education."
-Sir Walter Scott
"For all the good ... wonderful educators do in individual lives, the system is still a factory which idealizes and promotes social and intellectual conformity."
-DeMille
"Teaching influences belief, which guides action."
-DeMille
A Thomas Jefferson Education
"To commit our children to the care of irreligious people is to commit lambs to the superintendency of wolves."
-Timothy Dwight
President of Yale
1795-1817
"A knowledge of words and a taste for books are two of life's enduring treasures."
-Edward Shewan
"Conviction, education and courage are not optional add-ons to the Christian life, but are the very substance of it."
-Dr. R.C. Sproul Jr.
"...impart wisdom to your children. Train them in wisdom from above, not worldly wisdom, so that they will be able to recognize the truth that comes only from God. Then our children will walk in purity, gentleness and peacefulness, full of love, mercy, and good works, without partiality or hypocrisy. What a tremendous purpose-and promise-for parents! What parents won't consider themselves successful when their children attain wisdom? After all, God did not call us to prepare our children for Harvard, but for heaven."
