[blockquote cite=”Franklin Roosevelt”]The school is the last expenditure upon which America should be willing to economize. [/blockquote]
[blockquote cite=”Woodrow Wilson”]I have long enjoyed the friendship and companionship of Republicans because I am by instinct a teacher and I would like to teach them something. (Wilson was a Democrat) [/blockquote]

[blockquote cite=”Lyndon Johnson”]You aren’t learning anything when you’re talking. [/blockquote]
[blockquote cite=”Harry Truman”]I do not believe there is a problem in this country or the world which could not be settled if approached through the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount. [/blockquote]
