Henry Ford Education Quotations

One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.

There are two extremes to be avoided: one is the attitude of contempt toward education, the other is the tragic snobbery of assuming that marching through an educational system is a sure cure for ignorance and mediocrity.

A man who cannot think is not an educated man however many college degrees he may have acquired.

A man's real education begins after he has left school. True education is gained through the discipline of life.

The object of education is not to fill a man's mind with facts; it is to teach him how to use his mind in thinking.

An educated man is not one whose memory is trained to carry a few dates in history - he is one who can accomplish things.

Anyone who keeps learning stays young.

Merely gathering knowledge may become the most useless work a man can do. What can you do to help and heal the world? That is the educational test.

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty.
