Quote by Henrietta Newton Martin

“Education is a basic human need which can certainly be considered a path to social development. Expansion of individual knowledge leads to expansion of civilized thought process and with the dissemination of such thinking the society develops and grows to the next level. This brings about social change and development with marked progress. Social development begins within the mind, with the desire to change and improve. This desire may have been inculcated through learning or observation. Such desires must be fueled towards progress.”
