About This Quote
The education of the peasantry is the most important thing in the world. Education is needed for everything today. We have to be educated on how to use our phones, computers, cars, appliances, and all of the technology that surrounds us. We need to be educated on how this new world works.
We need to know what is going on in the world around us. Being educated about the world around us is important not only for surviving in today’s world, but also for enjoying it.
