EDUCATION: I strongly believe in the old phrase, "Knowledge is power." Education and knowledge give us power over the ignorant and the apathetic. It allows us to move forward and past those with mediocre minds that attempt to defy us with their pseudo morals and closed perspectives. These people unknowingly set humanity back in our progress to a higher existence. We, as human beings, must learn and apply our knowledge to the world around us. We need to force the apathetic to see the truth about our ways, so that we can grow as a whole, making a better life here for future generations.
