Seite 105 - The great men of culture are those who have had a passion for diffusing, for making prevail, for carrying from one end of society to the other, the best knowledge, the best ideas of their time; who have laboured to divest knowledge of all that was harsh, uncouth, difficult, abstract, professional, exclusive; to humanize it, to make it efficient outside the clique of the cultivated and learned, yet still remaining the best knowledge and thought of the time, and a true source, therefore, of sweetness...
Seite 33 - To be attached to the subdivision, to love the little platoon we belong to in society, is the first principle (the germ as it were) of public affections. It is the first link in the series by which we proceed towards a love to our country, and to mankind.
Seite 29 - A nation is a soul, a spiritual principle. Two things, which in truth are but one, constitute this soul or spiritual principle.

Seite 10 - What was that Board School of yours, Straker ? STRAKER. Sherbrooke Road. TANNER. Sherbrooke Road ! Would any of us say Rugby ! Harrow ! Eton ! in that tone of intellectual snobbery ? Sherbrooke Road is a place where boys learn something: Eton is a boy farm where we are sent because we are nuisances at home, and because in after life, whenever a Duke is mentioned, we can claim him as an old schoolfellow. STRAKER. You don't know nothing about it, Mr Tanner.
Seite 35 - The drill methods of the preceding period must be slowly relaxed and new appeals made to freedom and interest. We can no longer coerce a break, but must lead and inspire if we would avoid arrest. Individuality must have a longer tether. Never is the power to appreciate so far ahead of the power to express, and never does understanding so outstrip ability to explain.
Seite 10 - No, Tavy. Regent Street, Chelsea, the Borough — I don't know half their confounded names: these are his universities, not mere shops for selling class limitations like ours. You despise Oxford, Enry, dont you? STRAKER. No, I dont. Very nice sort of place, Oxford, I should think, for people that like that sort of place.
