The Wrong Things Are Predominantly Stressed In

I Am Beginning To Suspect All Elaborate And Special Systems Of Education. They Seem To Me To Be Built Up On The Supposition That Every Child Is A Kind Of Idiot Who Must Be Taught To Think.

Certain Periods In History Suddenly Lift Humanity To An Observation Point Where A Clear Light Falls Upon A World Previously Dark.

The Great War Proved How Confused The World Is. Depression Is Proving It Again.

It's A Great Mistake, I Think, To Put Children Off With Falsehoods And Nonsense, When Their Growing Powers Of Observation And Discrimination Excite In Them A Desire To Know About Things.

If My Parents Didn't Push Me And Didn't Support Education, I Probably Wouldn't Be Here Today.... Regardless Of Whatever They Went Through And How They May Have Been Treated, They Felt Education Was Important. So, It's Easier When You Have The Parents Who Support It, Rather Than Those Who Don't.
