One man, one person, one vote, one time- does not constitute a democracy.
Jonathan Kessler
Regardless of who you’re supporting in the election, take some time to educate yourself on the issues that matter most to you and vote the candidate that best represents those issues. Oh, and saying things like “If ___ wins, I’m leaving the country.” makes you look far worse than anything else. If your candidate doesn’t win, find a way to get involved in the political process at whatever level to fight for what and who you believe in no matter who is in power.
No man was ever so completely skilled in the conduct of life, as not to receive new information from age and experience.Jonathan Swift
Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.William Butler Yeats
Education is a gift for some and should be a right for all!John Legend
You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.Winston Churchill
Today is your day.from Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose.
I’ve been thinking a whole heck of a lot lately about other options for my life should my ideal career not pan out. While I’m extremely optimistic that I will find what’s right for me, I am also a realist and know that there’s no guarantees in higher education, especially in America today. I’m hoping to post a series of my options here over the next few weeks.
Here are some great quotes by Steve Jobs on his experiences and support of education.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.John Lennon
