“Imagine filling a college with the first 1,000 students to get perfect SATs.

“Now, of course, architecture is a blind spot of our life in America today. How many millions of students go to the university to be educated?

“In America we have only the bourgeoisie, and the love of the heroic is one of the few counterpoises available to us. In us the contempt for the heroic is only an extension of the perversion of the democratic principle that denies greatness and wants everyone to feel comfortable in his skin without having to suffer unpleasant comparisons. Students have not the slightest notion of what an achievement it is to free oneself from public guidance and find resources for guidance within oneself.” WantFeelsAmericaSufferingPrinciplesStudentsGreatnessAchievementComfortableResourcesSkinsDemocraticNotionOneselfAvailableDenyGuidanceComparisonContemptHeroicExtensionsBourgeoisiePerversion Book:Closing of the American Mind Source: Closing of the American Mind

“Jerry Falwell knows who caused the terrorist attack on America: the ACLU. "The ACLU's got to take a lot of blame for this," he declared on the 700 Club, because, he explained, the ACLU, abetted by the federal courts is responsible for "throwing God out of the public square (and) the public schools." This is a familiar charge and a false one. God is still present in the public schools, where students are free to pray, alone or in groups, so long as their prayers aren't officially sponsored and don't infringe on anyone's freedom not to pray.” KnowsLongStillsSchoolAmericaPrayerGroupsStudentsPrayingResponsibleBlameCourtClubsTerroristFamiliarThrowingSquaresPublic SchoolJerryTerrorist Attacks Author:Wendy Kaminer
