John Ruskin: On the Benefits of Education
"Education is the leading of human souls to what is best, and making what is best out of them; and these two objects are always attainable together, and by the same means. The training which makes men happiest in themselves also makes them most serviceable to others."(Stones of Venice, 1853)
