“Education, particularly higher education, will take Africa into the mainstream of globalization.”– John Agyekum Kufuor Related Quotes “Education was the most important value in our home when I was growing up. People don’t always realize that my parents shared a sense of intellectual curiosity and a love of reading and of history.”– Caroline Kennedy “My father is a real idealist, and he’s all about learning. If I asked for a pair of Nikes growing up, it was just a resounding ‘No.’ But if I asked for a saxophone, one would appear and next day and I’d be signed up for lessons. So anything to do with education or learning, my father would spare no expense.”– Hugh Jackman “For me, I was somebody who was a smart young guy who didn’t do very well in school. The basic system of education, I didn’t fit in my intelligence was elsewhere.”– Bruce Springsteen
