«A really plain woman is one who, however beautiful, neglects to charm»
«Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living is education.

That education which ignores man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power can not be considered true education.»
