In the world of language, or in other words in the world of art and liberal education, religion necessarily appears as mythology or as Bible.

Men of polite learning and a liberal education.

Why not spend that time on art: painting, sculpting, charcoal, pastel, oils? Are words or numbers more important than images? Who decides this? Does algebra move you to tears? Can plural possessives express the feelings in your heart? If you don't learn art now, you will never learn to breathe!

Education can give you a skill, but a liberal education can give you dignity.

In other words, Judaism is not Calvinism.

Versatility of education can be found in our best poetry, but the depth of mankind should be found in the philosopher.
