"A child miseducated is a child lost...." - Quote by John F Kennedy

“The ancient Greek definition of happiness was the full use of your powers along lines of excellence.”

“We are under exercised as a nation. We look instead of play. We ride instead of walk. Our existence deprives us of the minimum of physical activity essential for healthy living.”

“Intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong.”

“We all want to live a happy life and have a right to do so, whether through work or spiritual practice. I'm subject to destructive emotions like anger and jealousy the same as you, but we all have potential for good too. However, our existing education system is oriented towards material development; neglecting inner values. Consequently we lack a clear awareness of the inner values that are the basis of a happy life.”

“My father must have had some elementary education for he could read and write and keep accounts inaccurately”

“That's what education should be," I said, "the art of orientation. Educators should devise the simplest and most effective methods of turning minds around. It shouldn't be the art of implanting sight in the organ, but should proceed on the understanding that the organ already has the capacity, but is improperly aligned and isn't facing the right way.”

“You know, nothing is more important than education, because nowhere are our stakes higher; our future depends on the quality of education of our children today.”

“Of all the statistics in health, death is the easiest, because you can go out and ask people, "Hey, have you had any children who died, did your siblings have any children who died?" People don't forget that.”

“Children are our greatest untapped resource.”
