Education [is] not an end in itself but [is] the first step in a progress which should continue during a lifetime. ↗
Completing the circle is both philosophical and tactical - there is a growing sense of mastery that comes with practice, diligence, and experience. ↗
This life is not given to us as a pastime. There was a solemn purpose in our creation, in the life that God has given to us. Let us study what that purpose is, that we may progress and obtain eternal life. ↗
