Great quotes here and also from @MangoCrazy, @Scopeowner, @Lucy98, and @BestWingmanEver. :smile:

@scrawlx101 There are lots of quotes about education and achieving dreams. Here are just a few of my favourites: "If you're not willing to learn, no one can help you; if you're determined to learn, no one can stop you."
"Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education." ~ Martin Luther King
"The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet." ~ Aristotle
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
"Education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire." ~ W.B. Yeats

"Your wings already exist. All you have to do is fly."
"Never be limited by other people's limited imaginations." ~ Dr. Mae Jemison
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."
"We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline and effort." ~ Jesse Owens
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." :smile:
