“No group and no government can properly prescribe precisely what should constitute the body of knowledge with which true education is concerned.”

“I always used to suffer a great deal if I let myself get too close to reality since the definitive world of the everyday with its hard edges and harsh light did not have enough resonance to echo the demands I made upon experience.
