“... the next war will be a war in which people not armies will suffer, and our boasted, hard-earned civilization will do us no good.

“The general Mistake among us in the Educating of our Children, is, That in our Daughters we take Care of their Persons and neglect their Minds; in our Sons, we are so intent upon adorning their Minds, that we wholly neglect their Bodies.”
