"It is not enough to do, one must also become. I wish to be wiser, stronger, better. This — " I held out my hands " — this thing that is me is incomplete. It is only the raw material with which I have to work. I want to make it better than I received it."

Additional quotes by Louis L'Amour
In the United States we have concentrated tremendous sums of money on the educational plant, seemingly with the idea that the right number of buildings will turn out the right number of graduates. Yet the teachers who actually instruct the future citizens of our country are more often than not miserably paid. If in the future we find ourselves with a lot of fourth-rate citizens, we have only ourselves to blame.
