Schoolhouses Are The Republican Line Of Fortifications.

Jails And Prisons Are The Complement Of Schools; So Many Less As You Have Of The Latter, So Many More Must You Have Of The Former.

As An Apple Is Not In Any Proper Sense An Apple Until It Is Ripe, So A Human Being Is Not In Any Proper Sense A Human Being Until He Is Educated.

If Ever There Was A Cause, If Ever There Can Be A Cause, Worthy To Be Upheld By All Of Toil Or Sacrifice That The Human Heart Can Endure, It Is The Cause Of Education. It Has Intrinsic And Indestructible Merits. It Holds The Welfare Of Mankind In Its Embrace, As The Protecting Arms Of A Mother Hold Her Infant To Her Bosom. The Very Ignorance And Selfishness Which Obstructs Its Path Are The Strongest Arguments For Its Promotion, For It Furnishes The Only Adequate Means For Their Removal.

Whatever Statesman Or Sage Will Effect Reforms Upon A Gigantic Or Godlike Scale Must Begin With The Young.

The False Man Is More False To Himself Than To Any One Else. He May Despoil Others, But Himself Is The Chief Loser. The World's Scorn He Might Sometimes Forget, But The Knowledge Of His Own Perfidy Is Undying.
