“Every age and degree of understanding should have its proper measure of discipline. With regard to boys and adolescents, therefore, or those who cannot understand the seriousness of the penalty of excommunication, whenever such as these are delinquent let them be subjected to severe fasts or brought to terms by harsh beatings, that they may be cured.” ShouldMayAgeUnderstandingTermBoysDisciplineDegreesShould HaveRegardPenaltiesHarshSevereSeriousnessDelinquentsExcommunication Book:St. Benedict’s Rule for Monasteries Source: St. Benedict’s Rule for Monasteries

“We teach them to take their patriotism at second-hand; to shout with the largest crowd without examining into the right or wrong of the matter -- exactly as boys under monarchies are taught and have always been taught. We teach them to regard as traitors, and hold in aversion and contempt, such as do not shout with the crowd, and so here in our democracy we are cheering a thing which of all things is most foreign to it and out of place -- the delivery of our political conscience into somebody else's keeping. This is patriotism on the Russian plan.” MatterHandsPoliticalBoysTeachDemocracyPlansTaughtConscienceAll ThingsRegardCrowdsPatriotismCheerContemptMonarchyDeliveryTraitorExaminingAversionSecond Hand Book:Mark Twain at Your Fingertips: A Book of Quotations Source: Mark Twain at Your Fingertips: A Book of Quotations
“The lowest standards of ethics of which a right-thinking man can possibly conceive is taught to the common soldier whose trade is to shoot his fellow men. In youth he may have learned the command, 'Thou shalt not kill,' but the ruler takes the boy just as he enters manhood and teaches him that his highest duty is to shoot a bullet through his neighbor's heart - and this, unmoved by passion or feeling or hatred, and without the least regard to right or wrong, but simply because his ruler gives the word.” ThinkingMenGivingHeartMayWarFeelingsPassionCommonBoysTeachYouthTaughtDutyHighestStandardsEthicsHatredRegardFellowsTradeSoldierNeighborCommandAnti WarAntiwarRulersBulletsLowestManhoodFellow ManThinking Man Author:Clarence Darrow
