The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts.
(The Abolition of Man, 1943)
C. S. Lewis
| Select C. S. Lewis Quotations |
Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn. My God, do you learn. Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil. We live, in fact, in a world starved for solitude, silence, and private: and therefore starved for meditation and true friendship.
