    Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion city of our God!

    The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    If that the earth could teem with woman’s tears,
    Each drop she falls would prove a crocodile.
