Most human beings have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted. That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.
大多数人都有一种近乎无限的能力，认为一切都是理所当然的。人不能从历史的教训中学到很多东西，这是所有历史教训中最重要的一条。

Schools are not intended to moralize a wicked world, but to impart knowledge and develop intelligence, with only two social aims in mind: prepare to take on one's share in the world's work, and perhaps in addition, lend a hand in improving society, after schooling is done.
学校的目的不是教化一个邪恶的世界，而是传授知识和发展智力，只有两个社会目标:做好准备，在世界的工作中承担自己的一份，或许还有，在完成学业后，帮助改善社会。

A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.
当老人种下他们知道自己永远不会坐在树荫下的树时，一个社会就会变得伟大。
