When you have solved the problem of controlling the attention of the child, you have solved the entire problem of its education.
~ Maria Montessori
Now the problem with standardized tests is that it's based on the mistake that we can simply scale up the education of children like you would scale up making carburetors. And we can't, because human beings are very different from motorcars, and they have feelings about what they do and motivations in doing it, or not.
~ Ken Robinson
The lack of diversity in higher education is a problem we as a country must tackle if we're going to live up to our promise.
~ Wendy Kopp
The Nazi period could have happened only in Germany because the German education of obedience to any law and order was the main problem.
~ Heinrich Böll
If you take any world problem, any issue on the planet, the solution to that problem certainly includes education. In education, the roadblock is the laptop.
~ Nicholas Negroponte
The problem is that we are trying to prepare people for the new economy using a higher education system built for the old economy. As a result, many high-skilled, high-paying industries suffer from a shortage of labor, while too many low-paying industries suffer from a surplus.
~ Marco Rubio
Education is not a problem. Education is an opportunity.
~ Lyndon B. Johnson
If you only have a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.
~ Abraham Maslow
The older I get the more wisdom I find in the ancient rule of taking first things first. A process which often reduces the most complex human problem to a manageable proportion.
~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
The problem with Google is you have 360 degrees of omnidirectional information on a linear basis, but the algorithms for irony and ambiguity are not there. And those are the algorithms of wisdom.
~ William Hurt
Part of my problem is that I cannot dispel the myths that have somehow accumulated over the years. Somebody writes something, it's completely off the wall, but it gets filed and repeated until everyone believes it. For instance, I've read that I wear a football helmet in the car.
~ Stanley Kubrick
The problem is Twitter is designing the metaphorical equivalent of a Toyota Prius. A car for the masses. While I want a Formula One race car.
~ Robert Scoble
People can't stay out of their cars. I do think we have a real problem staying out of our automobiles. We have a real dependency on them, and it may be for more than just transportation.
~ Steve Forbert
Every city has to deal with the problem of cars and public transport.
~ Jaime Lerner
If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliche that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal.
~ John Lennon
Peace is a day-to-day problem, the product of a multitude of events and judgments. Peace is not an 'is,' it is a 'becoming.'
~ Haile Selassie
To solve the problem of organizing world peace we must establish world law and order.
~ Arthur Henderson
The problem with romantic comedies is you know the ending by the poster. So they're not movies you can keep doing over and over again expect satisfaction somehow.
~ Ryan Reynolds
The problem is, when I talk about heartbreak or whatever, people want to melt it down to some break-up of a relationship, but it's not about that. If you're a sensitive person, just stepping outside can be heartbreaking.
~ Lykke Li
Each success only buys an admission ticket to a more difficult problem.
~ Henry Kissinger
The measure of success is not whether you have a tough problem to deal with, but whether it is the same problem you had last year.
~ John Foster Dulles
I think of it this way: When you hear that people have downloaded your comic, appreciate that thousands are eager to hear what you have to say. The poetry club down the hall may not have the same problem. That's a good problem to have.
~ Mark Waid
One problem we face comes from the lack of any agreed sense of how we should be working to train ourselves to write poetry.
~ James Fenton
The biggest problem is people are afraid of poetry, think they can't understand it or that it will be boring.
~ Caroline Kennedy
Poetry is not mainstream, but then neither is serious fiction, really. But I don't think there's a lot to worry about in this particular 'problem'. Why does art have to be mainstream to be significant?
~ Jonathan Galassi
To a poet the mere making of a poem can seem to solve the problem of truth, but only a problem of art is solved in poetry.
~ Laura Riding
Scientists are not delinquents. Our work has changed the conditions in which men live, but the use made of these changes is the problem of governments, not of scientists.
~ J. Robert Oppenheimer
Anger can be a problem, but it has tremendous potential, too. It's just figuring out what to do with it.
~ Sean Penn
I've had no problem harnessing anger.
~ Clint Eastwood
My fitness trainer's English, my physio's English, some of my friends are English. I don't have a problem with English people at all.
~ Andy Murray
Our regular fitness programme means that the race lasting longer than others should not be a problem, but something you have to prepare for in Singapore is ensuring you always keep well-hydrated, as the heat and humidity can easily dehydrate you.
~ Romain Grosjean
Once in a while I'll get moved to do some exercise. It's something I long for but the biggest problem is bending down and putting my tennis shoes on. Once I go out I'm OK.
~ David Soul
Climate change is a terrible problem, and it absolutely needs to be solved. It deserves to be a huge priority.
~ Bill Gates
On climate change, we often don't fully appreciate that it is a problem. We think it is a problem waiting to happen.
~ Kofi Annan
Climate change is a global problem. The planet is warming because of the growing level of greenhouse gas emissions from human activity. If this trend continues, truly catastrophic consequences are likely to ensue from rising sea levels, to reduced water availability, to more heat waves and fires.
~ Malcolm Turnbull
If you ask what you are going to do about global warming, the only rational answer is to change the way in which we do transportation, energy production, agriculture and a good deal of manufacturing. The problem originates in human activity in the form of the production of goods.
~ Barry Commoner
It's quite normal to hear of a change and see it as a problem, but it's probably an opportunity, depending on how quickly you can adjust.
~ Jim Pattison
So the next thing I assume I'll be hearing from Republicans, they want to change rules some way, as they do on the House when you get a problem with ethics, they just change the rules.
~ Harry Reid
The universe is almost 14 billion years old, and, wow! Life had no problem starting here on Earth! I think it would be inexcusably egocentric of us to suggest that we're alone in the universe.
~ Neil Degrasse Tyson
No pill can help me deal with the problem of not wanting to take pills; likewise, no amount of psychotherapy alone can prevent my manias and depressions. I need both.
~ Kay Redfield Jamison
