    The first duty of a state is to see that every child born therein shall be well housed, clothed, fed and educated till it attains years of discretion.

    Of all the things that oppress me, this sense of the evil working of nature herself—my disgust at her barbarity—clumsiness—darkness—bitter mockery of herself—is the most desolating.
    —John Ruskin (1819–F1900)

    We have seen when the earth had to be prepared for the habitation of man, a veil, as it were, of intermediate being was spread between him and its darkness, in which were joined in a subdued measure, the stability and insensibilty of the earth, and the passion and perishing of mankind.
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
