If An Idiot Were To Tell You

Jails And Prisons Are The Complement Of Schools; So Many Less As You Have Of The Latter, So Many More Must You Have Of The Former.

Let The Common School Be Expanded To Its Capabilities, Let It Be Worked With The Efficiency Of Which It Is Susceptible, And Nine Tenths Of The Crimes In The Penal Code Would Become Obsolete; The Long Catalogue Of Human Ills Would Be Abridged; Men Would Walk More Safely By Day; Every Pillow Would Be More Inviolate By Night; Property, Life, And Character Held By A Stronger Tenure; All Rational Hopes Respecting The Future Brightened.

If There Is Anything For Which I Would Go Back To Childhood, And Live This Weary Life Over Again, It Is For The Burning, Exalting, Transporting Thrill And Ecstasy With Which The Young Faculties Hold Their Earliest Communion With Knowledge.

Teachers Teach Because They Care. Teaching Young People Is What They Do Best. It Requires Long Hours, Patience, And Care.

The Earth Endured Christ's Ministry Only Three Years;--not Three Weeks After His Real Character And Purposes Were Generally Known.
