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

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
-
Unfortunately, I almost feel like because I’ve heard it so many times, you know, there’s this part of me that felt like I don’t even want to be mad at you. I just feel like I should educate you about it.
Amara La Negra
-
It is the way to educate your eye and more. Stare, pry, listen, eavesdrop.

In our so-called democracy we are accustomed to give the majority what they want rather than educate them to understand what is best for them.

Margaret Anderson
-
I try to do what I call the three E's - educate, entertain, and enlighten. If you don't entertain, no one will show up. But you also have to educate, because people want to discover specific things about a world unlike their own - whether it's how hard it is to go to the moon or how scary it is to be on Omaha Beach.
Tom Hanks
-

Nature educates us into beauty and inwardness and is a source of the most noble pleasure.
Karl Blossfeldt

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
