Legislation is about the exercise of power; education is about the exercise of empowerment. -- Kester Brewin in The Complex Christ
For the simplicity on this side of complexity, I wouldn't give you a fig. But for the simplicity on the other side of complexity, for that I would give you anything I have. -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
The first quote is interesting, I would suggest that education is about inertia. It is about preserving the memes, values, momentum, or methods of the teacher.
