“It is our American habit if we find the foundations of our educational structure unsatisfactory to add another story or wing. We find it easier to add a new study or course or kind of school than to recognize existing conditions so as to meet the need. strangled the holy curious of inquiry. It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.” IfsThinkingNeedsKindMeanStoriesSchoolCoursesMistakeEducationStudySeeingConditionsDutyHabitEasierHolyFoundationStructureWingsAddEducationalGravesCuriousEnjoymentInquiryCoercion Author:Albert Einstein

“... it was religion that saved me. Our ugly church and parochial school provided me with my only aesthetic outlet, in the words ofthe Mass and the litanies and the old Latin hymns, in the Easter lilies around the altar, rosaries, ornamented prayer books, votive lamps, holy cards stamped in gold and decorated with flower wreaths and a saint's picture.” BookSchoolChurchPrayerChristianityFlowerHolyMassGoldSaintUglySavedCardsLatinAestheticEasterLampsOutletsAltarsLiliesHymnsRosaryWreaths Author:Mary McCarthy
“Only a handful of Germans in the Reich had the slightest conception of the eternal and merciless struggle for the German language, German schools, and a German way of life. Only today, when the same deplorable misery is forced on many millions of Germans from the Reich, who under foreign rule dream of their common fatherland and strive, amid their longing, at least to preserve their holy right to their mother tongue, do wider circles understand what it means to be forced to fight for one's nationality.” WayMeanDreamTodaySchoolMotherFightingLanguageCommonMillionsStruggleHolyEternalLongingMiseryStriveTongueCirclesPreservesConceptionHandfulNationalityFatherlandMother TongueGerman Language Author:Adolf Hitler

“Tom Hart, David Lasky, Ed Brubaker, Megan Kelso, Julie Doucet. These people lived comics. The people in Seattle got together every week to draw and critique each other's work. Outside of art school, I never did that. When I came back from that trip, I had a physical, palpable sense of being self-conscious. It was the first time I'd drawn where I was like, "Holy cow, people are going to read this. They're going to like it, or they might not like it. Maybe I really should make my drawings a little more solid, or really think about what I'm doing. Maybe this shouldn't be so sloppy."” PeopleThinkingArtSchoolTogetherWeekHolyFirst TimeWork OutCritique Author:John Porcellino
