What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the human
soul. The philosopher, the saint, the hero, the wise, and the good,
or the great, very often lie hid and concealed in a plebeian, which
a proper education might have disinterred and brought to light.
-- Joseph Addison (1672-1719), English essayist.
-- Spectator, no. 215 (London, 6 Nov. 1711)
