To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.

 ― Victor Hugo 

Teach the ignorant as much as you can; society is culpable in not providing a free education for all and it must answer for the night which it produces. If the soul is left in darkness sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness.
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

 

He who opens a school door, closes a prison.
― Victor Hugo 

 

Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy, so they know the value of things, not the price. ― Victor Hugo
