My mom grew up in poverty in Oklahoma - like Dust Bowl nine people in one room kind of place - and the way she got out of poverty was through education. My dad grew up without a dad with very little and he also made his way out through education.

My dad was in the army. World War II. He got his college education from the army. After World War II he became an insurance salesman. Really I didn't know my dad very well. He and my mother split up after the war. I was raised by my maternal grandmother and grandfather and by my mother.

Good manners will open doors that the best education cannot.

The education of women is the best way to save the environment.

It is our moral obligation to give every child the very best education possible.

Education is the leading of human souls to what is best and making what is best out of them.

Education must provide the opportunities for self-fulfillment it can at best provide a rich and challenging environment for the individual to explore in his own way.
