Education, n. That which discloses to the wise and disguises from the foolish their lack of understanding.: Ambrose Bierce (1842 - 1914), The Devil's Dictionary

But stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death, there is no appeal and execution is carried out automatically and without pity.: Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love"
Men are born ignorant, not stupid; they are made stupid by education.: Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)

If you sincerely desire a _truly_ well-rounded education, you must study the extremists, the obscure and "nutty". You need the balance! Your poor brain is already being impregnated with middle-of-the-road crap, twenty-four hours a day, _no matter what_. Network TV, newspapers, radio, magazines at the supermarket... even if you never watch, read, listen, or leave your house, even if you are deaf and blind, the _telepathic pressure alone_ of the uncountable normals surrounding you will insure that you are automatically well- grounded in consensus reality.: Rev. Ivan Stang - High Weirdness By Mail
Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.: H.G. Wells
