Mark Twain on School

************************************************************************************************************




 




SCHOOL

 

In the first place God made idiots. This was for practice. Then he made School Boards.

- Following the Equator; Pudd'nhead Wilson's New Calendar

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
 
- Speech, 11/23/1900
