Tuition, for instance, is an important item in the term bill, while for the far more valuable education which he gets by associating with the most cultivated of his contemporaries no charge is made.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Strange as it may seem, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and formal education positively fortifies it.”
