Horace Mann quotes

US educator, the first great American advocate of public education, 1796-1859


A human being is not attaining his full heights until he is educated.

 

It is well to think well; it is divine to act well.

 

Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity.

 

A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on a cold iron.

 

Education alone can conduct us to that enjoyment which is, at once, best in quality and infinite in quantity.

 

Teachers teach because they care. Teaching young people is what they do best. It requires long hours, patience, and care.

 

Education...beyond all other devices of human origin, is a great equalizer of conditions of men --the balance wheel of the social machinery...It does better than to disarm the poor of their hostility toward the rich; it prevents being poor.

 

Education alone can conduct us to that enjoyment which is, at once, best in quality and infinite in quantity.

 

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.

 

I have never heard anything about the resolutions of the apostles, but a good deal about their acts.
