I want to fix education in the world. As soon as I work on that, I am going to work on world hunger and then world peace.
— Nolan Bushnell
Education must provide the opportunities for self-fulfillment; it can at best provide a rich and challenging environment for the individual to explore, in his own way.

There is no war on women. Women are doing well. But women are thoughtful. And what we in the Republican Party and across the country, Republican, Independents and Democrat women say is we're more thoughtful than a label. We care about jobs and the economy and healthcare and education. We care about a lot of different things.
— Nikki Haley
I have an education, I went to college, you know?
— Nicole Polizzi
If something can be proven to work, we should try it... Making sure that our young folk get the best education is the only thing that matters to me, and if something can be shown to work in doing that or if something's worth trying to do that, then I'll certainly be in the market for it.
— Nicola Sturgeon
A good education is the most important gift we can give our young people.
All the Oscars stuff for 'An Education' was incredibly exciting, especially because it was such an underdog project - no one would give us the money for it, and we all nearly gave up because it wasn't getting anywhere, then suddenly a breakthrough and this really lovely film, which then took on a life of its own.
— Nick Hornby
I have my master's degree in secondary education. I actually interned at a high school and student-taught at a high school for a year.

Why are fanatics so terrified of girls' education? Because there's no force more powerful to transform a society. The greatest threat to extremism isn't drones firing missiles, but girls reading books.
— Nicholas Kristof
Dr. Ben Carson has the most moving personal narrative in modern presidential politics. His mother, one of 24 children, had only a third-grade education. She was married at age 13, bore Ben and his brother, and then raised the boys as an impoverished single mother in Detroit. As a young boy, Carson was a terrible student.
On the first day of school, my teacher, Miss Mdingane, gave each of us an English name and said that from thenceforth that was the name we would answer to in school. This was the custom among Africans in those days and was undoubtedly due to the British bias of our education.

On the contrary, if they are treated with justice and humanity, proper example and the advantages of education given them, the coming years will be as bright and prosperous to the unfortunate race as the past has been dark and painful.

My mom never went to college, so she just assumed the writer identity, and that was always really inspiring to me. It's not something you need nine levels of education for. It's really an identity that you claim for yourself, and then you have to make yourself one.
— Noah Hawley
Education is not a tool for development - individual, community and the nation. It is the foundation for our future. It is empowerment to make choices and emboldens the youth to chase their dreams.
If you care about potholes, you have to vote. If you care about pre-k education, you have to vote. If you care about women's health care, you have to vote.
— Nina Turner
I strongly believe that education is a human right and that it's extremely valuable, no matter where you live in the world.
We have a large underclass in Britain, and a fairly low standard of education. Our best universities are extremely good, but a very significant proportion of the British population that comes out of compulsory schooling with very low standards of education.

I believe in free education, free healthcare. But I do not believe in equality.
— Nicolas Winding Refn
The importance of education is ingrained in Scottish history.
The whole purpose of my education ultimately was so I could deliver a statement eloquently before my execution.
— Nick Yarris
I kind of stumbled on the material for 'An Education' and thought it would make a good movie, and one of the things that came out of that, for me, was that I learned that if you write a big part for a girl or a young woman, you get the opportunity to work with the best talent in the world.
My father was a teacher and my mother also worked in the school, so the family has a background in education.
— Nick Cave
We've been working now with computers and education for 30 years, computers in developing countries for 20 years, and trying to make low-cost machines for 10 years. This is not a sudden turn down the road.
One of the aims of higher education is to broaden perspectives, and what better way than by a home stay in a really different country, like Bangladesh or Senegal? Time abroad also leaves one more aware of the complex prism of suspicion through which the United States is often viewed.
A basic element of the American dream is equal access to education as the lubricant of social and economic mobility.
I can't think of anything I would rather do with my money than buy my children the best possible education.
— Niall Ferguson

— Nelsan Ellis
The internet could be a very positive step towards education, organisation and participation in a meaningful society.
At Reliance Foundation schools, we lay special emphasis on value-based education, sports, and overall development of students. That is why the teacher-students ratio is kept at a healthy 1:20 so that all children get proper attention in class.
Every child has a right to education as much as to life, and every woman the right to live.
People who don't read seem to me mysterious. I don't know how they think or learn about other people. Novels are a very important part of our education.
— Nina Bawden
Performing arts was something I was always part of. That was may be the only common thread that ran throughout my education, throughout my schooling years. But apart from that, there were no friends or no long term associations. That was the only thing I knew was with me wherever I went.
— Nimrat Kaur
I don't drive smart cars; I don't go on fancy holidays. All my money has gone on my kids' education.
— Nigel Farage
I was never told that the purpose of school was to get a job at the end of it. What was pushed on me was a love of learning, probably because my parents didn't have access to a great education.
— Nicola Walker
When I was growing up, I was lucky to benefit from a first class education.
I'm a big fan of regular school and regular education. I just learn better in a classroom where I can talk to other students. I want to go to prom and dances and have that social aspect.

'An Education' was a complicated piece of work because it came from a tiny essay, so it took me a while to find the story I wanted to tell and the characters I wanted to tell it about. That really only emerged after four or five drafts.
My goal is not selling laptops. OLPC is not in the laptop business. It's in the education business.
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.
Girls' education is no silver bullet. Iran and Saudi Arabia have both educated girls but refused to empower them, so both remain mired in the past. But when a country educates and unleashes women, those educated women often become force multipliers for good.
The best escalator to opportunity in America is education.
The education I received was a British education, in which British ideas, British culture, British institutions, were automatically assumed to be superior. There was no such thing as African culture.
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
