"My, child, I am Education, known to you, even you have not tasted me till the end. If you believe in me, I will show you things passed along from old men, narrate great things they achieved and the causes of everything. I can bring you in contact with everything. The soul, which is your most important part, I can decorate with precious jewels: temperance, justice, piety, kindness, prudence, courtesy, the love of the good, the impulse for the higher things, those are truly, the jewels of the soul. Nothing you will ever miss from the old things nor will you miss things that are going to happen, but with me, you are going to predict the future and in general everything that exists, divine and mortal, I will teach you them all, soon."

[Education had appeared as a goddess to the rhetor and poet Loukianos, in his dreams (On Dreams 9), 2nd-century a.C.]
