Overview

Excerpt from Sesame and Lilies: Three Lectures The success of the present system of education will be open to grave question as long as pupils leave school with so little conception of the close and prac tical relation between moral and mental growth, and so little sense of personal responsibility. The knowl edge which consists simply of acquired information is but a poor substitute for the strength of a true education, and this education must, as Ruskin says, he moral first; intellectual secondarily. Intellectual before - (much more without) - moral education, is, in completeness, impossible, and, in incompleteness, a calamity.
