Genius May Conceive But Patient Labor Must

Virtue Is An Angel, But She Is A Blind One, And Must Ask Knowledge To Show Her The Pathway That Leads To Her Goal.

The Education Already Given To The People Creates The Necessity Of Giving Them More.

If There Is Anything For Which I Would Go Back To Childhood, And Live This Weary Life Over Again, It Is For The Burning, Exalting, Transporting Thrill And Ecstasy With Which The Young Faculties Hold Their Earliest Communion With Knowledge.

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.

Under The Providence Of God, Our Means Of Education Are The Grand Machinery By Which The 'raw Material' Of Human Nature Can Be Worked Up Into Inventors And Discoverers, Into Skilled Artisans And Scientific Farmers, Into Scholars And Jurists, Into The Founders Of Benevolent Institutions, And The Great Expounders Of Ethical And Theological Science.
