More In Education "Giving women education, work, the ability to control their own income, inherit and own property, benefits the society. If a woman is empowered, her children and her family will be better off. If families prosper, the village prospers, and eventually so does the whole country."― Isabel Allende "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."― William Butler Yeats "I see my job as an actor to be as good a channel as I can be. Acting is a gift, and I have respect for it."― Lili Taylor
