We have entered an age in which education is not just a luxury permitting some men an advantage over others. It has become a necessity without which a person is defenseless in this complex, industrialized society. We have truly entered the century of the educated man.

  • -- Lyndon B. Johnson 林登·约翰逊

我们已经进入了这样一个时代:教育不仅仅是一种奢侈品,它使一些人比其他人更有优势。在这个复杂的工业化社会里,没有它,一个人就没有了防御能力。我们真正进入了一个有知识的人的世纪。
