"The aim of education is the knowledge not of facts but of values." ― William Ralph Inge Topic(s): Education More From William Ralph Inge "To become a popular religion, it is only necessary for a superstition to enslave a philosophy." "We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if they were able to formulate a religion, they would depict the Devil in human form." "A nation is a society united by a delusion about its ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours."

Roosevelt "The pastor of a parish will typically have no education in the chant or in music, and he will hire the first music director who walks through the door."― Richard Morris "Such schemes take money from people who can least afford to spend it to support an unneeded bureaucracy that eats money people thought they were providing for education."― Jesse Helms
