Those Who Exert The First

Knowledge Is A Mimic Creation.

If Ever There Was A Cause, If Ever There Can Be A Cause, Worthy To Be Upheld By All Of Toil Or Sacrifice That The Human Heart Can Endure, It Is The Cause Of Education. It Has Intrinsic And Indestructible Merits. It Holds The Welfare Of Mankind In Its Embrace, As The Protecting Arms Of A Mother Hold Her Infant To Her Bosom. 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.

Virtue Is An Angel, But She Is A Blind One, And Must Ask Knowledge To Show Her The Pathway That Leads To Her Goal.

Scientific Truth Is Marvelous, But Moral Truth Is Divine And Whoever Breathes Its Air And Walks By Its Light Has Found The Lost Paradise.

Education Must Bring The Practice As Nearly As Possible To The Theory. As The Children Now Are, So Will The Sovereigns Soon Be.
