Furthermore, into most human lives there is thrust the problem of earning a living. So fierce is human struggle at this age that the earning of a livelihood, if the living is to be a comfortable one, requires the possession on the part of the individual of expertness in some one direction.
Page 69 - We supposed it had always been understood in this state that education, not merely in the rudiments, but in an enlarged sense, was regarded as an important practical advantage to be supplied at their option to rich and poor alike, and not as something pertaining merely to culture and accomplishment to be brought as such within the reach of those whose accumulated wealth enabled them to pay for it.
