About This Quote
If you don’t believe that education is the light switch for the mind, then let me provide an example of what I mean. My mom recently moved to a new neighborhood and we stopped by to see her old house. That’s when we discovered that it had been remodeled and was now a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a big front lawn and a detached garage. So, my mom asked me how I liked the new house and she asked me, “What do you think about all of this?” I said, “Mom, this isn’t my house anymore.
It is yours now. If you ever need anything, I will be here for you.” She smiled at me and said, “That’s exactly right. This is your house now.
I put in all of this work to make sure that it was perfect for you to live in.”
