Continued adherence to a policy of compulsory education is utterly incompatible with efforts to establish lasting peace.

Education rears disciples, imitators, and routinists, not pioneers of new ideas and creative geniuses. The schools are not nurseries of progress and improvement, but conservatories of tradition and unvarying modes of thought.
