“[T]he
capitalized
and communal
form of live
intelligence;
it is intelligence
stored up and made
into habits of
discipline,
signs and symbols
of meaning, chains
of reasoning and
spurs to emotion –
a shorthand and a
wireless by which
the mind can skip
connectives,
recognize ability,
and communicate
truth.”​
​
“It is very
nearly impossible...
to become an
educated person in a country
so distrustful of
the independent
mind.”
​
“I
know of no
country in
the which there
is so little
independence
of mind
and
real freedom
of
discussion
as in
America.”
