WE MUST HAVE LIFE - BULDING, MAN-MAKING, CHARACTER - MAKING ASSIMILATION OF IDEAS


 Every man of originality that has been produced has been educated elsewhere, and not in this country, or they have gone to the old universities once more to ...cleanse themselves of superstitions. Education is not the amount of information that is put into your brain and runs riot there, undigested, all your life. We must have life-building, man-making, character-making assimilation of ideas.
