The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life.
Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.
Sport teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose - it teaches you about life.
If the art is created with the whole person, then the work will come out whole. Education must teach, reach, and vibrate the whole person rather than merely transfer knowledge.
Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.
Learn a new language; Understand a new culture; Make lifelong friends ; “Cross-cultural learning and studying abroad can be transformative.
