Educate a man and you educate an individual. Educate a woman and you educate a family.

Arthur Shearly Cripps

If you educate a boy, you educate a person, but if you educate a girl, you educate a family and benefit an entire community.” An entire community - now that is really interesting! Then I found the quote changed a little more on the Kingdom of Jordan website by her Royal Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan during her interview with Oprah Winfrey. Queen Rania relates the quote in these words: “As you educate a woman, you educate the family. If you educate the girls, you educate the future.

Queen Rania of Jordan

Queen Rania of Jordan

If I had the choice of educating a boy or a girl, I would educate the girl. If you educate a boy, you educate one, but if you educate a girl, you educate a generation.

To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.

Theodore Roosevelt

Each generation is inclined to educate its young so as to get along in the present world instead of with a view to the proper end of education: the promotion of the best possible realization of humanity as humanity. Parents educate their children so that they may get on; princes educate their subjects as instruments of their own purpose.

John Dewey

Monty Williams

Educate a woman, you educate a nation.

Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka

Just as the philanthropist is the nuisance of the ethical sphere, so the nuisance of the intellectual sphere is the man who is so occupied in trying to educate others, that he has never had any time to educate himself.

Oscar Wilde

Everything has to do with education: If you educate the girls, you educate the family, the community, and society, in general.

Alek Wek

It is always a much easier task to educate uneducated people than to re-educate the mis-educated.

Herbert M. Shelton

Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy, so they know the value of things, not the price.

Victor Hugo

I believe acting and teaching are not so far apart. As a teacher, you educate. And films educate, too, but they do it in a massive way.

Yalitza Aparicio

You educate a boy, and he'll have fewer children, but it's a small effect. You educate a girl, and, on average, she will have a significantly smaller family.

Nicholas Kristof

Somebody once said, educate a woman and you will educate a family. I am saying, empower a woman to become an entrepreneur, and you will create an entire family of entrepreneurs. Woman entrepreneurship is the need of the nation right now. It's the surest and quickest way to make India a superpower.
