"And finally the last thing I'll say for the people who don't believe in cycling, the cynics and the skeptics, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry you can't dream big and I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles... but this is one hell of a race, this is a great sporting event and you should stand around and believe in these athletes, you should believe in these people and I'm a fan of the Tour De France for as long as I live and there are no secrets, this a hard sporting event and hardwork wins it and so Viva La Tour forever."

"Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people may be engaged in."- Abraham Lincoln

"Education". A simple word which encompasses the complexities behind the attainment of knowledge. In today's world, education has become an issue of grave importance. In some societies, it has become mandatory that each and every person should be provided with a basic education. Yet illiteracy and unemployment still play a major role in our social hierarchy. Numerous individuals are forced with great endeavours simply because of a lack of education. Education has helped me build my character. Over the years, I have learned that education is a necessity for the upbringing of any individual. Every single person is born with a talent, education helps to bring out that talent.

Education encompasses the learning of knowledge, information and skills during the course of life. In a world where corruption and terrorism prevails; education can be that factor, which helps eliminate such evils. Such ills can be combated by the effective implementation of stringent laws, which without the help of education would be an unassailable task. It also helps solve various other predicaments such as poverty, world hunger, overpopulation, health related issues and many more.

It is necessary that we ensure that everyone is provided with a sufficient education. There should be an increase in number of educational institutes, especially public schools so that even the poor will have access to education. In a country, like India, where more than a quarter of the population is under the poverty line such a measure becomes a requirement for its social and economic development. Uneducated people suffer the wrath of unemployment and poverty. They fail to understand the workings of the society. Illiteracy has lead to overpopulation in under-developed countries. The poor population feel that the more children they produce the more hands they have to earn. In reality, they just add to the burden of their mundane lives. Education will provide with them knowledge of family planning and certify population stability.

Education is a macroeconomic concept which leads to social and economic development of a community, a nation. Without education there would be no doctors, lawyers or any other professional for that matter. I, as a student, believe that everyone holds the right to education and they should be provided with the support they require.

Education is the difference between a developed and a developing economy. Thirty years ago, Dubai was just a desert, and now it has become an international hub, all due to the contributions of highly skilled and educated workers. Education helps broaden the mind's horizons. The creativity within man is brought out due to education. With the advent of education, more and more people can hone their skills.

As a student who wants to take up a future in business, I know it is imperative for me to be highly educated. With the degree of competition prevalent in the economy, jobs are hard to come by. A quality education at a reputed university would provide me with the exposure I need to occupy a high position in an eminent company and would help me ratify the problems that are related to uneducated people and help me implement effective policies to eradicate such issues.

Education is a stepping stone to success. It equips people with knowledge and elevates them to a better standard of living.
