“Those who have no record of what their forebears have accomplished lose the inspiration which comes from the teaching of biography and history.”
“The mere imparting of information is not education.”
—Carter G. Woodson
“Make yourself do unpleasant things so as to gain the upper hand of your soul.”
“Education must not simply teach work – it must teach Life.”
“The cost of liberty is less than the price of repression.”
—W. E. B. Du Bois
“Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.”
“Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work.”
“I shall allow no man to belittle my soul by making me hate him.”
“Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it is better to be alone than in bad company.”
“You can’t hold a man down without staying down with him.”
“No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem."
—Booker T. Washington
And of course they pick February, the shortest month, to be Black History Month!
