"If you have four years to complete your college education, do it." ― Bo Jackson Topic(s): Education More From Bo Jackson "I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just out run everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything." "I also tell them that your education can take you way farther than a football, baseball, track, or basketball will – that’s just the bottom line." "Don’t sell yourself short because without that you can’t go far in life because after sports the only thing you know is sports and you can’t do anything else with that." More In Education "Education begins the gentleman, but reading, good company and reflection must finish him."― John Locke "Where the private sector, or anyone else, has skills, knowledge and resources that can help to deliver a high quality of education and to raise standards, we should use them."― Estelle Morris "Any education that matters is liberal. All the saving truths, all the healing graces that distinguish a good education from a bad one or a full education from a half empty one are contained in that word."― Alan K. Simpson
