in a way it doesn't matter whether you open doors or close them, you still end up in a box.

Marilyn French

Pray that God will open the doors you can't open and close the doors that need to be closed.

Joyce Meyer

We boast of our system of education, but why stop at schoolmasters and schoolhouses? We are all schoolmasters, and our schoolhouse is the universe. To attend chiefly to the desk or schoolhouse while we neglect the scenery in which it is placed is absurd. If we do not look out we shall find our find schoolhouse standing in a cow-yard at last.

Henry David Thoreau

We are born into a vast room whose walls consist of a thousand doors of possibility. Each door is flung open to the world outside, and the room is filled with light and noise. We close some of the doors deliberately, sometimes with fear, sometimes with calm certainty. Others seem to close by themselves, some so quietly that we do not even notice.

Terry Teachout

Do you remember that old TV series, Get Smart? Do you remember at the beginning where Maxwell Smart is walking down the secret corridor and there are all of those doors that open sideways, and upside down and gateways and stuff? I think that everyone keeps a whole bunch of doors just like this between themselves and the world. But when you're in love, all of your doors are open, and all of their doors are open. And you roller-skate down your halls together.

Douglas Coupland

We live, we love. These are the choices we are given, to open doors or to close them. It is all we have, and it is enough

Karen White

We must open the doors of opportunity. But we must also equip our people to walk through those doors.

Lyndon B. Johnson

We must open the doors of opportunity. We must equip our people to walk through those doors.

Lyndon B. Johnson

Good manners open the closed doors; bad manners close the open doors!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

What the world needs most is openness: Open hearts, open doors, open eyes, open minds, open ears, open souls.

Robert Muller

Much of education can and should take place in schools and other formally designated community institutions. But the world beyond the schoolhouse is crucial to education, and both traditional and new media are more important than ever.

Howard Gardner

I think it's dangerous being cynical because you close doors rather than open them.

Freddie Fox

A poet must be a professor of the five senses and must open doors among them.

Federico Garcia Lorca

In my view, immigrants today aren't any different from immigrants who have come to America throughout our nation's history. They bring new ideas, an entrepreneurial spirit and close family ties. They place a high value on education. And they are eager to achieve the American Dream. ... It's to our benefit to keep our doors open, and to keep enriching our economy and culture. I'd like to see America continue to do so.

Dick Armey

One could get locked in by the Pulitzer, thinking, 'This is who I am.' Doors open with it, but doors in your mind could close.

Suzan-Lori Parks

God can take better care of you than you could ever take of yourself. He could open doors for you that you could never open. He can close doors that will keep you out of trouble. God can give you favor everywhere that you go.

Joyce Meyer
