"It is those people who know that they are right because some outside or higher power conveys the conviction to them who do the great damage in the world."

Most of all we need an education which will create an educated mind. This is a mind not simply a repository of information and skills, but a mind that is a source of creative skepticism, characterized by a willingness to challenge old assumptions and to be challenged, a spaciousness of outlook, and convictions that are deeply held, but which new facts and new experiences can always modify.

— Lyndon B. Johnson
