Quotes by Richard Mitchell

Literacy is not, as it is considered in our schools, a PORTION of education. It IS education. It is at once the ability AND the inclination of the mind to find knowledge, to pursue understanding, and out of knowledge and understanding, not out of received attitudes and values or emotional responses, however worthy, to make judgments.

You can shoot the tiger, or stay out of his way, but you cannot pronounce him a vegetarian.
