    “The gods’ service is tolerable, man’s intolerable.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    “We have what I would call educational genocide. I’m concerned about learning totally, but I’m immersed in the disastrous record of how many black kids are going into science. They are very few and far between. I’ve said that when I see more black students in the laboratories than I see on the football field, I’ll be happy.”
