"The function of education has never been to free the mind and spirit of man, but to bind them; and to the end that the mind and spirit of his children should never escape Homo sapiens has employed praise, ridicule, admonition, accusation, mutilation, and even torture to chain them to the culture pattern . . . for where every man is unique there is no society, and where there is no society there can be no man. Contemporary American educators think they want creative children, yet it is an open question as to what they expect these children to create. And certainly the classrooms - from kindergarten to graduate school - in which they expect it to happen are not crucibles of creative activity and thought. It stands to reason that were young people truly creative the culture would fall apart, for originality, by definition, is different from what is given, and what is given is the culture itself. From the endless, pathetic, "creative hours" of kindergarten to the most abstruse problems in sociology and anthropology, the function of education is to prevent the truly creative intellect from getting out of hand."

                    Jules Henry, Culture Against Man

"...Tocqueville spoke of a necessary 'apprenticeship of liberty' which he called the most arduous of all apprenticeships. It points to the core meaning - now lost to most educational institutions in America - of public schooling in the 'liberal arts.' The liberal arts are the arts of liberty necessary to the exercise of citizenship in a free republic."

"To the general everything was so simple. The road to military glory ran according to the recipe: at 6 p.m. the soldiers get goulash and potatoes,  at half past eight the troops defecate it in the latrines and at nine they go to bed. In the face of such an army the enemy flees in panic."
