More Quotes from Horace Mann:
Education then, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men, the balance-wheel of the social machinery.Horace Mann
In vain do they talk of happiness who never subdued an impulse in obedience to a principle. He who never sacrificed a present to a future good, or a personal to a general one, can speak of happiness only as the blind speak of color.
Horace Mann
If any man seeks for greatness, let him forget greatness and ask for truth, and he will find both.
Horace Mann
It is well when the wise and the learned discover new truths but how much better to diffuse the truths already discovered amongst the multitudes. Every addition to true knowledge is an addition to human power and while a philosopher is discovering one new truth, millions of truths may be propagated amongst the people.... The whole land must be watered with the streams of knowledge.
Horace Mann

Horace Mann
