“The difficulty in our education up till now lies, for the most part, in the fact that knowledge did not refine itself into will, to application of itself, to pure practice. The realists felt the need and supplied it, though in a most miserable way, by cultivating idea-less and fettered "practical men." Most college students are living examples of this sad turn of events. Trained in the most excellent manner, they go on training; drilled they continue drilling.” MenWayNeedsIdeasFactsLyingTurnsFeltPracticeEventsExampleStudentsCollegeGoes OnPureTrainingDifficultyPracticalsMiserableExcellentApplicationRealistCultivatingCollege StudentsDrilling Book:The False Principle of Our Education: Or, Humanism and Realism Source: The False Principle of Our Education: Or, Humanism and Realism
“About what mainly constituted what you ask, it was something other. It was just a certain inclination to meet people. And as far as possible, to change something in the other, but also to let me be changed by him. At any event, I had no resistance, I put no resistance to it. I already began as a young man.

“Advance warning of Katrina's path was wrested from mute Nature by meteorological calculations and satellite imagery. God told no one of His plans.
