We all have two educations, one of which we receive from others, and another, and the most valuable, which we give ourselves. It is this last which fixes our grade in society, and eventually our actual condition in this life, and the color of our fate hereafter. All the professors and teachers in the world would not make you a wise or good man without your co-operation, and if such you are determined to be, the want of them will not prevail.
A deadly viper once bit a hole snipe's hide; But 'twas the viper, not the snipe, that died.
