Delaware State began as a school bent on service - teaching education social services and nursing.

There are three major social issues that this country is struggling with: education poverty and drugs. Two of them we talk about and one of them we don't.

Of all the public services education is the one I'm most interested in. You get a more dynamic economy you deal with most social problems and it's morally right.

The Tories and the Lib Dems talk about social mobility but short of winning the lottery the only way to guarantee young people from all backgrounds the opportunity to do better and to raise aspirations is through education.

I feel a social responsibility. We need to open people's eyes. There is a lack of education in Ethiopia.

My grandmother lived to be 100 years old. Her grandmother was a slave yet she was a college graduate in the Spellman class of 1917. She taught art for 50 years and she saved her Social Security checks for her children's education.

My hope was that organizations would start including this range of skills in their training programs - in other words offer an adult education in social and emotional intelligence.

Without in any way minimising the economic and psychological blow that people experience when they lose their jobs the unemployed in affluent countries still have a safety net in the form of social security payments and usually free healthcare and free education for their children. They also have sanitation and safe drinking water.

A country like Belgium or socialist countries in central Europe spend more money on art education than the United States which is a really puzzling thought.

Research has shown time and time again that infants who receive the high-quality child care and early education programs do better in school have more developed social skills and display fewer behavior problems.

There is nothing of any consequence in education in the economy in city planning in social policy that does not concern black people.

Poverty is multidimensional. It extends beyond money incomes to education health care political participation and advancement of one's own culture and social organisation.

This assumption of Negro leadership in the ghetto then must not be confined to matters of religion education and social uplift it must deal with such fundamental forces in life as make these things possible.

Education then beyond all other devices of human origin is the great equalizer of the conditions of men the balance-wheel of the social machinery.

We must carefully consider card security solutions such as adding photographs or machine-readable electronic strips so to prevent further breaches of individual privacy that could result from changes to the design of Social Security Cards.

To whom does design address itself: to the greatest number to the specialist of an enlightened matter to a privileged social class? Design addresses itself to the need.

When the courts decide that murderers rapists and others who maliciously break our social contract deserve health care that most working Americans can't afford they are condemning good people to death.

If efforts to do social work are couched in selfish motives then they will die a premature death. Why would my efforts get politicised? I have values I inherited from my father. He helped many. Anyone even a postman knocking on our door would get a glass of water and some sweets.

No society has been able to abolish human sadness no political system can deliver us from the pain of living from our fear of death our thirst for the absolute. It is the human condition that directs the social condition not vice versa.

All stories interest me and some haunt me until I end up writing them. Certain themes keep coming up: justice loyalty violence death political and social issues freedom.

There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.

I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend me. Certain women particularly older women cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do.

Good-looking individuals are treated better than homely ones in virtually every social situation from dating to trial by jury.

I suppose I was a little bit of what would be called today a nerd. I didn't have girlfriends and really I wasn't a very social boy.
