“Education, I fear, is learning to see one thing by going blind to another.”

“education is one thing and instruction, however worthy, necessary and incidentally or monetarily educative, another.”

“Now I understand that one of the important reasons for going to college and getting an education is to learn that the things you've believed in all your life aren't true, and that nothing is what it appears to be.”

“I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind, Blind but seeing, Blind people who can see, but do not see.”

“It is a sad thing to want for happiness, but it is a terrible thing to see another groping about blindly for it, when it is almost within the grasp.”

“Why did we become blind, I don't know, perhaps one day we'll find out, Do you want me to tell you what I think, Yes, do, I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind, Blind but seeing, Blind people who can see, but do not see.”
