We assess the value of education in the same manner as we assess the value of land or of shares in the stock-exchange market. We want to provide only such education as would enable the student to earn more. We hardly give any thought to the improvement of the character of the educated. The girls, we say, do not have to earn; so why should they be educated? As long as such ideas persist there is no hope of our ever knowing the true value of education.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1977). “The Portable Nietzsche”, p.46, Penguin

    Dream   Kings   War  
    Stephen Crane (1970). “The Works of Stephen Crane Vol. 5: Tales of Adventure”, University of Virginia Press
  • How do I define a work of art? It is not an asset in the stock-exchange sense, but a man's timid attempt to repeat the miracle that the simplest peasant girl is capable of at any time, that of magically producing life out of nothing.

    Girl   Art   Men  
    Oskar Kokoschka, Marlborough Gallery (1981). “Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980): memorial exhibition”

  • I began to study again, and now for the first time really achieved an understanding of the content of the Jew Karl Marx's life effort.

    Adolf Hitler (1998). “Mein Kampf”, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
