Excerpt from What Is Education?
I have attempted not only to set forth my own views upon these problems, but, when opportunity offered, to re enforce them by the statements of other men. Have you ever observed that we pay more attention to a wise passage when it is quoted than when we read it in the original author? Writes Hamerton. I have felt that I had a duty to attempt to secure for some wise passages which bear very immediately upon the theory of education as much attention as I can.
