Education Vs Education

Henry Ford had but littile "schooling", he is not a man of "education." Those who make this mistake do not know Henry Ford, nor do they understand the real meaning of the word "educate."

That word is derived from the Latin word "educo," meaning to educe, to draw out, to Develop From Within. An educated man is not, necessarily, one who has an abundance of general or specialized knowledge. An educated man is one who has so developed the faculties of his mind that he may acquire anything he wants, or its equivalent, without violating the rights of others. Henry Ford comes well wothin the meaning of this definition.

         Knowledge is only potential power. It becomes power only when, and if, it is organized into definite plans of action, and directed to a definite end.
