As An Innovation... The Establishment Of Free Schools Was The Boldest Ever Promulgated, Since The Commencement Of The Christian Era... Time Has Ratified Its Soundness. Two Centuries Proclaim It To Be As Wise As It Was Courageous, As Beneficient As It Was Disinterested. It Was One Of Those Grand Mental And Moral Experiments... The Sincerity Of Our Gratitude Must Be Tested By Our Efforts To Perpetuate And Improve What They Established. The Gratitude Of The Lips Only Is An Unholy Offering.

Truths, No Matter How Momentous Or Enduring, Are Nothing To The Individual Until He Appreciates Them, And Feels Their Force, And Acknowledges Their Sovereignty. He Cannot Bow To Their Majesty Until He Sees Their Power. All The Blind Then, And All The Ignorant--that Is, All The Children--must Be Educated Up To The Point Of Perceiving And Admitting The Truth, And Acting According To Its Mandates.
