The fifth freedom is freedom from ignorance.

The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.

Jesus does put radical demands before people, but so did Isaiah and so does Proverbs. The New Testament is new in the same way that Isaiah was new or that Genesis was new over against Exodus.21 While there are statements Jesus makes that no prophet or wise teacher could have made, these are statements such as the "I am" declarations in John's Gospel; they relate to his being the incarnate one and the Savior.

The greater our knowledge increases the greater our ignorance unfolds.

Knowledge enormous makes a god of me.

Education can no longer be the sole property of the state.

I would rather have India without education, if that is the price to be paid for making it dry.

Education has become a very powerful weapon in the struggle to produce a well-developed person.

The great advantage of the sort of education I had was precisely that it made practically no mark upon those subjected to it.

Learning to play two pairs is worth about as much as a college education, and about as costly.

Progress stems from education, culture, freedom and equality. Without these fundamentals, mankind will flounder.

Schooling, instead of encouraging the asking of questions, too often discourages it.
