Additional quotes by Daisaku Ikeda

Reading literature can greatly enhance the study of science. If science is all one focuses, the mind will grow very mechanical. We are only fully human when we possess not only intelligence but also emotion and sensitivity. Literature is the oil that greases the wheels of the mind.

American philosopher and educator John Dewey (1859-1952) said "Genuine culture stimulates the creative powers of imagination, of mind and of thought. It includes not merely free access to things of the mind and taste already in existence but a positive production of them so that the waters of knowledge and of ideas are kept fresh and vital. Culture is a stimulus. Culture is to produce things of value. Culture enriches life. Culture belongs to the people. (6/15/96)
