    It is a monstrous thing to force a child to learn Latin or Greek or mathematics on the ground that they are an indispensable gymnastic for the mental powers. It would be monstrous even if it were true.

    My salad days,
    When I was green in judgment, cold in blood,
    To say as I said then!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Nights of storm, days of mist, without end;
    Sad days when the sun
    Shone in vain: old griefs and griefs
    Not yet begun.
    Edward Thomas (1878–1917)
