I believe that education is the fundamental method of social progress and reform.

We do not learn from experience...we learn from reflecting on experience.

Education is not an affair of 'telling' and being told, but an active and constructive process.

You cannot teach today the same way you did yesterday to prepare students for tomorrow.

Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.

Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.

If we teach today’s students as we taught yesterday’s, we rob them of tomorrow.

How can the child learn to be a free and responsible citizen when the teacher is bound?

To find out what one is fitted to do, and to secure an opportunity to do it, is the key to happiness.

The real process of education should be the process of learning to think through the application of real problems.

Art is not the possession of the few who are recognized writers, painters, musicians; it is the authentic expression of any and all individuality.

On our own, we’d look totally normal. Together, we’re something else. Together, we’re special.

It's time to make important noise.

Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self-sustained.

The nuclear weapon is obsolete. I want to get rid of them all.

I love Britain, I lived there for nine years doing shows and things, but I don't know what a British sensibility is. I'd like to have someone tell me what an American sensibility is.

It will be a difficult couple of days. It's difficult now and it will be difficult tomorrow.

What do the nationalists say about killers punishing murderers and thieves sentencing looters?

The entertainment industry is terrified of silence.

Your acting will not be good until it is only yours. That's true of music, acting, anything creative. You work until finally nobody is acting like you.

It's fun to talk about heaven, about the throne of God and Jesus and Pop and the daughter we thought we had lost but will meet again someday. But it's not fun to talk about how we got there.
