Being quite fond of quotes, I thought it fun to put together some of my favourite quotes from ancient Greece about education. It’s quite satisfying to know that even thousands of years ago people were concerned with being better than they are.
In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.
Aristotle
Wisdom outweighs any wealth.
Sophocles
The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.
Socrates
Wisdom begins in wonder.
Socrates
Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.
Plato
