imagination of tudor England."

The Public School Nightmare: Why fix a
system designed to destroy individual thought?
When you want to
teach children to think, you begin by treating them
seriously when they are little, giving them
responsibilities, talking to them candidly, providing
privacy and solitude for them, and making them
readers and thinkers of significant thoughts from the
beginning. That's if you want to teach them to
think.... There is no evidence that this has been a
State purpose since the start of compulsion
schooling.
