“Two forces are succesfully influencing the education of a cultivated man: art and science. Both are united in the book.”
“Both money and art powdered as they are with the romance and poetry of the age are magic. Rather money is magic art is magik. Money is stagecraft slight of hand a bag of clever tricks. Art is a plexus of forces and influences that act upon the senses by means of practical yet permanently inexplicable secret links. Admittedly the line between the two can be as thin as a dime.”
“The forces that unite us are intrinsic and greater than the superimposed influences that keep us apart.”
“A fool’s brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.”
“Personally I do not resort to force--not even the force of law--to advance moral reforms. I prefer education, argument, persuasion, and above all the influence of example.”
“Education is the art of making man ethical”
