Educate Quotes
-

Oscar Wilde

In recent years I had begun to be interested in fashion, to educate my taste under Adele's guidance, and now I enjoyed dressing up. But sometimes - especially when I had dressed not only to make a good impression in general, but for a man - preparing myself (this was the word) seemed to me to have something ridiculous about it. All that struggle, all that time spent camouflaging myself when I could be doing something else. The colors that suited me, the ones that didn't, the styles that made me look thinner, those that made me fatter, the cut that flattered me, the one that didn't. A lengthy, costly preparation. Reducing myself to a table set for the sexual appetite of the male, to a well-cooked dish to make his mouth water.
Elena Ferrante
-
And when your minister asks you for money for missionary purposes, tell him there are higher, and holier, and nobler missions to be performed at home.

Ernestine Rose

Amara La Negra

To educate children is not merely to provide for their material, or even their intellectual life, but to assure them of the sympathy of their parents, to inspire them with confidence and the certainty that there is always one place where they can unburden their hearts and forget their pains and sorrows, trivial though these may ofttimes appear to us.
Alfred Dreyfus
-
It is the way to educate your eye and more. Stare, pry, listen, eavesdrop.
Walker Evans
-
When you educate a woman, you set her free. Had I not had books and education in Mississippi, I would have believed that's all there was.
Oprah Winfrey
-
Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.
Aristotle
-
I just started reading lots of books and then called the United Nations and asked if they could educate me. The more I got involved, the more I suddenly began to feel useful as a human being and felt like I was finally living as I should be.
Angelina Jolie

The pleasure principle long persists, however, as the method of working employed by the sexual instincts, which are so hard to 'educate', and, starting from those instincts, or in the ego itself, it often succeeds in overcoming the reality principle, to the detriment of the organism as a whole.
Sigmund Freud
