Ignorance Has Been Well Represented Under The Similitude Of A Dungeon, Where, Though It Is Full Of Life, Yet Darkness And Silence Reign.

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.
