guess what?

Siti said,

"All good things come when time intends. So, let patience put you through all test".

She also said,

"Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you".

...and lastly she said,

"May the love of God shine in your life, as you become a light for others".

Thanks Siti for sharing...

EDUCATION IS...

Education is the fire-proofer of emotions.
-Frank Crane

Education is not filling a bucket, but lighting a fire.
- William Yeats

Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
- Robert Frost

Education would be much more effective if its purpose were to ensure that by the time they leave school every boy and girl should know how much they don't know, and be imbued with a lifelong desire to know it.
- Sir William Haley

The objective of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.
- Robert Maynard Hutchins

The real object of education is to have a man in the condition of continually asking questions.
- Bishop Mandell Creighton

It is because modern education is so seldom inspired by a great hope that it so seldom achieves great results.
- Bertrand Russell

The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think - rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with the thoughts of other men.
- Bill Beattie

Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education. The human mind is our fundamental resource.
- John F. Kennedy

Education's purpose to replace an empty mind with an open one.
- Malcom S. Forbes

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know what you don't.
- Anatole France

The highest result of education is tolerance.
- Helen Keller
