I'm a product of an East Coast liberal arts educational system.
In the world of language, or in other words in the world of art and liberal education, religion necessarily appears as mythology or as Bible.
True education does not consist merely in the acquiring of a few facts of science, history, literature, or art, but in the development of character.
Education is the art of making man ethical.
Just as the science and art of agriculture depend upon chemistry and botany, so the art of education depends upon physiology and psychology.
I'm not really well educated - other than an art survey course at the High School of Art and Design in New York when I was, like, 15. I don't know the history of art, but I got over intimidation from the art world when I realized that I was allowed t...
When I moved to Chicago, I was coming from a school that didn't have any arts in Alabama. I essentially came from a town where the arts didn't exist and the desire for education didn't exist and wasn't valued.
I remember that - you know, I didn't receive a formal education. I was educated in the Montevideo cafe, in the cafes of Montevideo. There, I received my first lessons in the art of telling stories, storytelling.

At any rate, girls are differently situated. Having no need of deep scientific knowledge, their education is confined more to the ordinary things of the world, the study of the fine arts, and of the manners and dispositions of people.
The educator and the public need to have an opportunity to discuss why certain art is important.
I wasn't using college as a stepping stone to law school or some other career. I just wanted a liberal-arts education.

Chris Salamone donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to education and leadership development as Chairman of the LeadAmerica Foundation. With his passion in studying and singing opera, he is trained in the martial arts of Jyu Ryu and Miyama Ryu Com...
Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.
Simplicity itself is the key. Education in ballet, dance, martial arts, etc., is done through poses, or to be more precise, through a countless series of poses. Perfection of movement is achieved through the flow of perfectly rehearsed poses.
My personal advice is to go to school first and get a liberal arts education, and then if you want to pursue acting, go to graduate school.
