Be Ashamed To Die Until

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.

Let The Common School Be Expanded To Its Capabilities, Let It Be Worked With The Efficiency Of Which It Is Susceptible, And Nine Tenths Of The Crimes In The Penal Code Would Become Obsolete; The Long Catalogue Of Human Ills Would Be Abridged; Men Would Walk More Safely By Day; Every Pillow Would Be More Inviolate By Night; Property, Life, And Character Held By A Stronger Tenure; All Rational Hopes Respecting The Future Brightened.

There Is Not A Good Work Which The Hand Of Man Has Ever Undertaken, Which His Heart Has Ever Conceived, Which Does Not Require A Good Education For Its Helper.

God Draweth Straight Lines But We Call Them Crooked.

On Entering This World Our Starting-point Is Ignorance. None, However, But Idiots Remain There.
