> Free human dialogue, wandering wherever the agility of the mind allows... [is] the heart of education. If teachers do not have the time, the incentive, or the wit to provide... if students are too demoralized, bored or distracted to muster the attention... needed... that is the educational problem which has to be solved... from inside the experience of the teachers and the students.
