1 " Far from failing in its intended task, our educational system is in fact succeeding magnificently because its aim is to keep the American people thoughtless enough to go on supporting the system. "
― Richard Mitchell
2 " We are in the process of disabling our most distinctive achievement - our educational system - in the name of making the country more like itself. "
― Marilynne Robinson
3 " We cannot improve ourselves or our country without improving our educational system and educating ourselves. "
4 " Thanks is part to our education system, we tend to think that we're smarter than the stupid guys in funny wigs who came before us. But that's because we are mistaking technology, progress, and access to information for intelligence. We think that because we know how to use iPhones (but not build them), browse the Internet (but not understand how it works), and use Google (but not really know anything), our educational system is working just great. By the same token, we think that those dumb aristocrats who used horses to get around and didn't have electricity were neanderthals. "
