350 Education Quotes That Will Inspire Your Students

Roughly 350 quotations about teaching, learning, reading, and education from historical figures, authors, and educators are listed alphabetically by their first word, running from Aristotle and Albert Einstein to Malala Yousafzai and Maya Angelou. A separate ‘Proverbs’ section at the end collects culturally attributed sayings — Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Latin, German, Zen, and Buddhist proverbs among them — on the same theme of learning and wisdom, set apart from the main alphabetical list. The collection is a reference document rather than a worksheet: there is no student task, question, or activity attached, only the running list of attributed quotations across the file's pages. Teachers are expected to select individual quotes to use for bulletin boards, newsletters, or as discussion openers rather than assigning the document itself to students.
