the problem with education is that it takes education to understand how important education is.

13 years ago | Likes 498 Dislikes 10

Or, on the flipside and in Malala's words, it's only when education is snatched away that you recognize its importance.

I heard this in the voice of Morpheus. +1 for you.

It takes common sense to understand how important education (or the idea of learning) is.

13 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

It's a different sort of education that can't be taught.

13 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

As someone who went through public education, I don't get it.

13 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And it takes guns to keep those who don't value education at bay. We can't just ship books to Afghanistan. Remember she's only 16.

The most frightening people in power are the ones who don't think education is important.

13 years ago | Likes 51 Dislikes 1

Wrong, they KNOW it is important, that is why they do not value it as then the masses become more powerful than them. :)

13 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 1

They know it's important, which is why they try to keep it from other people by making it not seem important.

You can say that about anything. It takes science to appreciate science, it takes maths to appreciate maths. It's sort of captain obvious...

13 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I'd consider them part of education, though. but education will show you the importance of other things. like air, spacetravel, or potatoes.

13 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I love the way you put that. A degree in science/art gives you a ton of appreciation for stuff you never even knew about!

Someone who knows they are beat. If you have to shoot a schoolgirl in the head to make your point, then you have already lost the argument.

And if she survives, recovers, and keeps opposing you after that, you really need to get the FUCK out of the way!
