True education does not consist merely in the acquiring of a few facts of science, history, literature, or art, but in the development of character.

Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.

Happiness consists not of having, but of being; not of possessing, but of enjoying. It is a warm glow of the heart at peace with itself. A martyr at the stake may have happiness that a king on his throne might envy. Man is the creator of his own happiness. It is the aroma of life, lived in harmony with high ideals. For what a man has he may be dependent upon others; what he is rests with him alone.

The greatest battles of life are fought out daily in the silent chambers of the soul.

The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.

Our classrooms are full of both right and wrong mentors.
