A Line Is Not Made Up Of

That Education Should Be Regulated By Law And Should Be An Affair Of State Is Not To Be Denied, But What Should Be The Character Of This Public Education, And How Young Persons Should Be Educated, Are Questions Which Remain To Be Considered. As Things Are, There Is Disagreement About The Subjects. For Mankind Are By No Means Agreed About The Things To Be Taught, Whether We Look To Virtue Or The Best Life. Neither Is It Clear Whether Education Is More Concerned With Intellectual Or With Moral Virtue.

So It Is Clear That The Search For What Is Just Is A Search For The Mean; For The Law Is The Mean.

The Difference Between A Learned Man And An Ignorant One Is The Same As That Between A Living Man And A Corpse.

Education And Morals Make The Good Man, The Good Statesman, The Good Ruler.

A Speaker Who Is Attempting To Move People To Thought Or Action Must Concern Himself With Pathos.
