Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern, but impossible to enslave.

Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to driv

Summary

This quote suggests that education has the power to empower individuals and make them more self-reliant. It implies that educated individuals are more likely to be informed and critical thinkers, less easily swayed or controlled by others. They are more likely to actively participate in governance and question authority, leading to a society that is more governed by the collective welfare rather than individual agendas or tyranny. Education is seen as a liberating force that allows individuals to break free from the shackles of ignorance and oppression.
