Perhaps the maxim may be justified from the example of some countries, in ancient and modern times. The Spartans and the Prussians would afford evidence of its truism. But in a country where education is a matter of inferior consideration, where teachers are as various in their precepts as they are numerous; and where the external alone is studied, to the ne- glect of moral accomplishment; in what light must we pursue the senti- ment of the writer?—We cannot call that education which consists of an indifference for, or a dereliction of the true intention of education. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-03322.xml Mon, 23 Mar 1970 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-03355.xml ADVICE is generally viewed as a nauseating potion by those patients to whom it is administered. It chills the heart, and discomposes the econ- omy of the nerves. Hence we find the adviser and the advice treated with equal contempt. To render coun- sel palatable, has been considered by moral writers as the highest and most valuable effort of genius. Nor can we reasonably question their decision when we contemplate the extreme difficulty as well as incalculable im- portance of the art. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-03355.xml Mon, 30 Mar 1970 12:00:00 GMT
