Today's Literacy Quote
"Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope. It is a tool for daily life in modern society.
It is a bulwark against poverty, and a building block of development, an essential
complement to investments in roads, dams, clinics and factories. Literacy is a
platform for democratization, and a vehicle for the promotion of cultural and
national identity. Especially for girls and women, it is an agent of family health
and nutrition. For everyone, everywhere, literacy is, along with education in
general, a basic human right.... Literacy is, finally, the road to human progress
and the means through which every man, woman and child can realize his or her
full potential." - Kofi Anan
