The main cause of failure is the inability to deal with self-doubt.

Bill Bartmann

The main failure of education is that it has not prepared people to comprehend matters concerning human destiny.

Norman Cousins

Insofar as Zionism sought to solve the Jewish question, it must be reckoned not just a failure but a catastrophe: Israel is the main cause of anti-Semitism in the world today.

Norman Finkelstein

Ask me my three main priorities for government, and I tell you: education, education and education.

Tony Blair

When people age, the main valve carrying blood out of the heart becomes brittle. As this aortic valve narrows, it can cause debilitating heart failure, and even death.

Scott Gottlieb

I'm all for education. Education ideally happens every moment of the day for people. Education is something that should never stop. The Limbaugh Institute, there are no graduates and no degrees 'cause the learning never stops here. You know, education's a pretty big umbrella.

Rush Limbaugh

Learning starts with failure; the first failure is the beginning of education.

John Hersey

The number one cause of failure in this country is the fear of failure.

Steve Harvey

If ever there was a cause, if ever there can be a cause, worthy to be upheld by all of toil or sacrifice that the human heart can endure, it is the cause of Education.

I have a couple of what I call "buttons" - fears or anxieties that when tweaked can cause me to be vulnerable. Fear of failure, not being good enough, and abandonment are my main buttons. However, they have diminished greatly over the years as I have really confronted those fears in order to work through them.

Nikki DeLoach

I think the one worthy cause I can identify myself with is valuing education. Because I believe education is something that cannot be taken away from you. You can have money, you can have fame, but in the end, it can be taken from you. But education will always be there to help you.

Shamcey Supsup

We who are engaged in the sacred cause of education are entitled to look upon all parents as having given hostages to our cause.

Horace Mann

I am afraid that those comments go back to the late 80's. At that time I was a skeptic - the argument based on Koch's postulates to try to distinguish between cause and association. Today I would regard the success of the many antiviral agents which lower the virus titers (to be expected) and also resolve the failure of the immune system (only expected if the virus is the cause of the failure) as a reasonable proof of the causation argument .

Walter Gilbert

We have to make education a priority, but all this debate about education and testing is almost beside the point. We only spend a fraction of the money on education that we spend on arms buildups. Under a Kucinich administration, education becomes one of the top domestic priorities. We put money into it. We cause the government to be vitally involved in it. And we make sure our children have the love of knowledge.

Dennis Kucinich

I like moments of staleness and mildew, simply because it creates the lane for change.
