“The new supplants the old. Yet men’s minds are stuffed with outworn bunk. Educating the young in the latest findings of authorities and scholars in the social sciences is important. It is equally important to devise ways and means for aiding the middle-aged and old to reexamine hang-over unscientific doctrines and ideas in the light of recent discovery and research.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“A slavish bondage to parents cramps every faculty of the mind.”
—Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)

—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“Man is known to be a selfish, as well as a social being.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
