• I've noticed a fascinating phenomenon in my twenty-five years of teaching - that schools and schooling are increasingly irrelevant to the great enterprises of the planet. No one believes anymore that scientists are trained in science classes or politicians in civics classes or poets in English classes. The truth is that schools don't really teach anything except how to obey orders.

• Vemos, pues, hasta qué punto los monumentos del ingenio y del saber son más duraderos que los monumentos del poder o de las manos. Pues los versos de Homero ¿acaso no han perdurado veinticinco siglos o más sin que se pierda una sílaba o una letra, tiempo durante el cual infinitos palacios, templos, castillos y ciudades se han deteriorado y demolido?

• Wheaties was the big sponsor in those days (1940s). They sponsored almost all the baseball games in the majors and the minors. That was a lot of Wheaties. I think there were twenty-four boxes in a case and some of these guys were hitting twenty-five and thirty home runs a season. We had a dog in those days named Blue Grass and the players used to give us their Wheaties for him. Blue Grass loved Wheaties and so did I.
