The Philosophic Aim Of Education

Wrong' Training Can Be A Very Innocent Thing. Consider A Father Who Allows His Child To Read Good Books. That Child May Soon Cease To Watch Television Or Go To The Movies, Nor Will He Eventually Read Book-of-the-month Club Selections, Because They Are Ludicrous And Dull. As A Young Man, Then, He Will Effectually Be Excluded From All Of Madison Avenue And Hollywood And Most Of Publishing, Because What Moves Him Or What He Creates Is Quite Irrelevant To What Is Going On: It Is Too Fine. His Father Has Brought Him Up As A Dodo.

Few Great Men Would Have Got Past Personnel.

In A Milieu Of Resignation, Where The Young Men Think Of Society As A Closed Room In Which There Are No Values But The Rejected Rat Race, ... It Is Extremely Hard To Aim At Objective Truth Or World Culture. One's Own Products Are Likely To Be Personal Or Parochial.

All Men Are Creative But Few Are Artists.
