Freedom of conscience, of education, of speech, of assembly are among the very fundamentals of democracy and all of them would be nullified should freedom of the press ever be successfully challenged.

Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.

An educated, enlightened & informed population is one of the surest ways of promoting the health of a democracy.

The true purpose of education is to prepare young men and women for effective citizenship in a free form of government.

Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.

No group and no government can properly prescribe precisely what should constitute the body of knowledge with which true education is concerned.
