  1. Education is not a problem but an opportunity. Education is not a right but a priviledge. Many children around the world do not have that priviledge but when they do they work so hard to be able to keep it.
    Thank you for each of your quotes.

  3. Valerie,
    I liked the quote from Virginia Buysse. All the more reason I am not a fan of homeschooling. Children need to be around other children to learn social and problem solving skills. Wonderful quotes! Thank you.

  4. I also got a quote from Lyndon B. Johnson, I think he was a very smart individual to put in place many social changes in his time. I love that when I went looking for his quotes there were many to choose from. Great quotes.
