"Teach your children to be brave. This century of ours has been marked most conspicuously by cowardice of the people everywhere. It was by our cowardice that we were betrayed into the hands of corrupt men who promised to make life"safe' for us and devoid of hazard, and robbed the adventurousness by which the spirits of men are strengthened. It was by our poltroonery that we lost our liberties. It was by our fears that we almost died. A brave people never become slaves." --Taylor Caldwell,"The Devil's Advocate"(1952) -- pgs. 332 -- 338
Comentário: Na verdade infelizmente, a educação nas escolas está orientada mais de criar oportunistas, covardes e conformistas enquanto na preparação para a entra nas universidade predomina a decoração sem pensar. Quando este produto finalmente está na universidade é freqeuentemente tarde demais para usar uma menta aberta e crítica preparada para ganhar cada vez mais sabedoria.
