Standardization develops a kind of mass mind, which in mature years renders men very susceptible to crowd appeal. - Everett Dean Martin

Education is training in wisdom and virtue, and the exercise of these is freedom.

The evil effect of these attempts to manipulate the multitude by pampering its weaknesses---in return for material and other advantages to persons and for ends not disclosed—is clearly seen in various aspects of our common life. In politics such effect have long been deplorable.

Education has to do with insight, with valuing, with understanding, with the development of the power of discrimination, the ability to make choice amongst the possibilities of experience and to think and act in ways that distinguish men from animals and higher men from lower.
