“A gentleman of Typee can bring up a numerous family of children and give them all a highly respectable cannibal education, with infinitely less toil and anxiety than he expends in the simple process of striking a light; whilst a poor European artisan, who through the instrumentality of a lucifer performs the same operation in one second, is put to his wits' end to provide for his starving offspring that food which the children of a Polynesian father, without troubling their parent, pluck from the branches of every tree around them.” GivingChildrenEndsLightFatherProcessParentSimplePoorProgressTreeAnxietyWitOperationsGentlemanBranchesToilStarvingRespectableOffspringPluckLuciferCannibalArtisansPolynesiansWits End Book:Typee: A Romance of the South Seas (Illustrated & Annotated Edition) Source: Typee: A Romance of the South Seas (Illustrated & Annotated Edition)
“We mourn; we sorrow for our loved ones that go - our wives, our husbands, our children, our parents; we sorrow for them; and it is well and proper that we should moum for them and shed tears for the loss, for it is our loss; but it is their gain, for it is in the march of progress, advancement and development.

I think if there were fees, progress could be very much faster. But for that we need not only the government in different countries to understand it but the society to put pressure on it, the parents to understand that their desire to have their children educated can actually be realized, and it could make a dramatic difference.” IfsThinkingNeedsChildrenDifferentCountryBigsGovernmentSchoolDesireOpportunityParentDifferencesProgressPressureDefenseOpeningEducatedFasterDramaticComparisonFundingFeesExpendituresDifferent Countries Author:Amartya Sen
