And let prizes be given to them by the Prize Asses

2.“It is an anxious, sometimes a dangerous thing to be a doll. Dolls cannot choose; they can only be chosen; they cannot ‘do’; they can only be done by; children who do not understand this often do wrong things, and then the dolls are hurt and abused and lost; and when this happens dolls cannot speak, nor do anything except be hurt and abused and lost. If you have any dolls, you should remember that.”

3. “No man who worships education has got the best out of education...

Without a gentle contempt for education, no man’s education is complete.”
