"Education exposes young people to a broader world, a world full of opportunity and hope." ― Christine Gregoire Topic(s): Education More From Christine Gregoire "One of the most powerful tools for empowering individuals and communities is making certain that any individual who wants to receive a quality education can do so." "When nearly a third of our high school students do not graduate on time with their peers, we have work to do. We must design our middle and high schools so that no student gets lost in the crowd and disconnected from his or her own potential." "Education is the foundation upon which we build our future."

They had brilliant health and education systems. Saddam actually created an incredible infrastructure in a very difficult country, but they were a Mafia family. If you said anything against that regime or that family you would be killed instantly."― Dominic Cooper "Of course the EU and member states must work to ensure that people moving from one country to another understand their obligations and their rights in areas like health, road safety and further education."― John Bruton
