english quotation essay
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change yourself and the world."
There is a reason why every civilization throughout time has valued education,because it truly can alter our collective condition and make our lives easier, simpler, and most crucially, happier! From Egyptians learning to write on papyrus tablets to late nineteenth century scientists striving to discover medicines like penicillin, there has always been an urge in humanity to be better and to be more than what we have been before.

True education allows us to revel in our interaction with others, having, most crucially, discovered the indomitable strength and potential inside our own selves. If self-actualization is the ultimate goal that man desires, as my father once suggested, then education is the surest way to transform a human being’s life. It breaks physical, mental, and spatial barriers and allows a person to critically and logically examine life, believe in his own potential, rather than depending on any other external
