I don't look to find an educated person in the ranks of university graduates, necessarily. Some of the most educated people I know have never been near a university.

My definition of an educated man is the fellow who knows the right thing to do at the time it has to be done. You can be sincere and still be stupid.

Educations
education...... education..... educations......
The most important things in our life.........
only with education we can through our life easily....
u only manage to catch your dream with educations.........
whatever it is..... it will come true.... if you're educated...............
I've through my life almost 30years without education.....
and i can see.....
people are useless without educations......
and those educated are priceless.....in the eye's of the world
And now....
I realized how priceless educations are............
and i think....
still not too late to step up....
And i want to chasing my dreams............
even i know.......
I'm not younger anymore...........
Because............. if you're have no educations....
You're nothing.......
You're no body.......
And the most important thing.....
no body will look at you even with one sight..................

The uneducated person perceives only the individual phenomenon, the partly educated person the rule, and the educated person the exception.

Charmless Man
I met him in a crowded room
Where people go to drink away their gloom
He sat me down and so began
The story of a charmless man
Educated the expensive way
He knows his claret from a beaujolais
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
But then nature didn't make him that way
He thinks his educated airs those family shares
Will protect him

We are not to give credit to the many, who say that none ought to be educated but the free; but rather to the philosophers, who say that the well-educated alone are free.

Women in Africa, generally a lot needs to be done for women. Women are not being educated, not only in Angola but my trip to Nigeria, one point I would make over and over again was that women need to be educated too.

We must not believe the many, who say that only free people ought to be educated, but we should rather believe the philosophers who say that only the educated are free.
Illiterate daughter is just like a dumb animal at home
Illiterate daughter is just like a dumb animal at home
It is the fundamental duty of parents to educate her,
In modern society a job holder girl is welcome,
Now-a-days a boy wants to marry a job holder girl,
Illiterate girl has no place in modern society at all,
Life long in husband's house uneducated girl suffers,
In her life, lack of her education is the greatest fall,
Educated girl makes her children educated too,
And she leads a happy life here and there,
Both the famlies honour her to get her income,
Educated girl will be greeted in life every where,
Wherever she works her husband will come,
Her parents will be happy to see her full of gay,
Literate girl prays for her parents heartily every day.

Half An Ass
You're like an earthquake
Oh, you're seperated
You're like a whirlwind
You never say hello
But I like it when you're seperated
Keep it clean
Change the scene
Bad dream and you know where you are
It's only you and I
You look nervous
Well you should be
You're educated
You're always learning
But I like it
When you're educated
Keep it clean
Change the scene
Bad dream and you know where you are
Take a trip
Candy flip
Bad ship and you're sailing away
Hold my hand
Down the way cause I've been so high
Cause it's only you and I

Judge presiding
Judge presiding
~
he sits aloft
looking down well dressed
an educated man
but a man nether the less
he has his own sins
vices, faults
they are left behind
in the changing room
with his casual wear
and coat, for now
he sits there listening
to every detail
every word of evidence
building his picture
of a legal precedent
hoping the jury helps
guide him to a conclusion
that serves the law well
its no easy task
the law is not perfect
but he's been educated
at some expense
to make these decisions
the verdict remains open
judge presiding

Touch Of Class
oh well, i hear you
speak english to your dogs
spanish to the maids
and french to your business partners
on the phone,
you write your poems in german
your essays in portuguese
your menu posted on the ref in italian
cultured, educated, that is you
with a touch of class
but for one thing
now that you have fallen
drowning in the sea
oh gosh, you do not even
know how to swim!
let your language save you then.

Oh fren dont say me sex
Girls r see me point of view of sex
they want to concern me in sex
my body's structure is like a sexy
but i'm not also
my frens r chitting their lovely wifes
they involve in cabin & another colorfull places
they want both bare sex
sex, oh god....
whats a meaning of sex? they didnt realise
their eyes r socalled love
their manner is betray something wrong
they didnt love the nature & god
sex is natural thing of humanbeing
but they didnt understood
their knowledge storing dirty garvage of sex
higher education give us protecting human sense
but educated person who is falling dirty game
society said philosopher
our education is toomuch uglyness
educational planning is too much doll
whole phenamena r waste of garvage
i dont like educated society
they make people glamour
fashion show is being to throw sex expose
civilized society is fell down dirty game
if the free sex expression is civilization
oh fren dont say me sex

The Headliner And The Breadliner
Moko, the Educated Ape is here,
The pet of vaudeville, so the posters say,
And every night the gaping people pay
To see him in his panoply appear;
To see him pad his paunch with dainty cheer,
Puff his perfecto, swill champagne, and sway
Just like a gentleman, yet all in play,
Then bow himself off stage with brutish leer.
And as to-night, with noble knowledge crammed,
I 'mid this human compost take my place,
I, once a poet, now so dead and damned,
The woeful tears half freezing on my face:
"O God!" I cry, "let me but take his shape,
Moko's, the Blest, the Educated Ape."

An Educated Crocodile Is Still A Crocodile
Rabbit
with a habit
lived in a hole
next to Vole.
And his habit was his link with the beginning of it all
and kept him looking different
from his neighbour, Vole.
So they laid a proper treat on,
washed his face and brushed his hair;
and they took him off to Eton
to be educated there.
There, they dressed him in a boater,
smart black jacket, white bow-tie;
and then they took his photo,
just to please his Auntie Vye.
And they fed him on cucumbers,
Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley, Keats.
And they taught him compound numbers
and such intellectual treats.
He learned to say, 'What rot! '
And would ask 'How do you do? '
So they popped him in a pot,
part of a rabbit and rhubarb stew!
(MORAL: AN EDUCATED HABIT IS STILL A RABBIT!)

Another Pretentious Move Kept to Deny Truth
I am not one against higher education.
I am one who takes offense against those...
Getting high while being educated.
This is not a recent phenomenon.
This is one of those situations,
Swept under the rug...
In another pretentious move kept to deny truth.
And today,
Teachers AND school administrators feel...
It is their duty to lie about achievements students make.
While those who desired to improve with noticeable,
And successful changes...
Were deemed our methods and approaches unacceptable.
Well...
Do you highbrows feel me now?
I am not one against higher education.
I am one who takes offense against those...
Getting high while being educated.
And those who teach with beliefs that's what that do,
While medicating themselves on maintaining their pretensions.

Funkier Than A Mosquitos Tweeter
Aillene bullock
Youre nothing but a dirty, dirty old man
You do your thinking with a one track mind
Keep talkin about heaven glory but
On your face is a different story
Clean up your rap your storys getting dusty
Wash out your mouth
Your lies are getting rusty
Cant believe nothing you say
cause Im around and I see what you do
You know youre funky as a mosquitos tweeter
You gotta mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old thing
You never changed
Always rappin bout the same old thing
I got something to tell ya
I got something to tell you baby
But you aint hip to baby
Blowin minds is a thing of the past
You blew your chance thats why you never last
You want to be a graduate mother
But in reality just another brother
You think you slick but could
Stand a lot of greasing
The things you do aint never really pleasin
Cant believe nothin you say
cause Im around and I see what you do
You know you funky as a mosquitos tweeter
You got a mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old thing
A...lways rappin bout the same old thing
You beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
Brought yoursef a pot of baked stew
Nothin worse than an educated fool
Talkin sex is your favorite conversation
But peace and love is a famous generation
Whats in your head has really started
Showing your conversation gettin kinda boring
Cant believe nothin you say
cause Im around and I see what you do
You know you funky as a mosquitos tweeter
You got a mouth like a herd of boll weevils
Same old game, same old game
Same old thing you never change
Same old game, same old thing
Always rappin bout the same old thing

Girls Have Rights Too
Girls must have the undeniable rights to speak,
And the God-given rights to choose and pick.
Girls must have the rights to be educated,
To be respected and to be protected.
Girls are human beings too;
Girls must have all the rights too.
Girls must have the rights to fight
For respect, comfort and decency.
Girls like boys are bright,
Girls must be able to taste the fruit of equality.
Girls are people too,
Girls are wonderful too.
Education is the light at the end of the tunnel,
And ignorance is the moon at the bottom of the funnel.
Education is the hope that triggers better opportunities,
It is also the antidote that defeats all sorts of disease.
Therefore, girls must have the rights to be educated,
To be protected and to be respected.
