Her pupils were at once her salvation and her despair. They gave her the means of supporting life, but they made life hardly worth supporting. ~ The Man Upstairs by P. G. Wodehouse "When I am king, they shall not have bread and shelter only, but also teachings out of books; for a full belly is little worth where the mind is starved." ~ The Prince and The Pauper by Mark Twain A man of genius makes no mistakes. His errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery. ~ Ulysses by James Joyce "I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square." ~ The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilised by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones. ~ Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte Beth could not reason upon or explain the faith that gave her courage and patience to give up life, and cheerfully wait for death. Like a confiding child, she asked no questions, but left everything to God and nature, Father and Mother of us all, feeling sure that they, and they only, could teach and strengthen heart and spirit for this life and the life to come. ~ Little Women by Louisa May Alcott "We learn from failure, not from success!" ~ Dracula by Bram Stoker
