Two Thoughts on the Liberal Arts Experience
"The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." Mark Twain
"A human being should be able to heal a wound, plan an expedition, order from a French menu, climb a mountain face, enjoy a ballet, balance accounts, roll a kayak, embolden a friend, tell a joke, laugh at a joke, laugh at oneself, cooperate, act alone, sing a children's song, solve equations, throw a dog a stick, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, love heartily, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love, 1973
