John RuskinThe beginning and almost the end of all good law is that everyone shall work for their bread and receive good bread for their work.
John RuskinTo be taught to readโwhat is the use of that, if you know not whether what you read is false or true? To be taught to write or to speakโbut what is the use of speaking, if you have nothing to say? To be taught to thinkโnay, what is the use of being able to think, if you have nothing to think of? But to be taught to see is to gain word and thought at once, and both true.
John Ruskin
