"A tragic indication that even the most noble attempts to inculcate children with the basic principles of universal humanism - that, whatever our differences, we are more alike than unalike - will founder against the rocks of deeply held prejudices of their parents. "

Gary Younge, "Sesame sans frontieres", The Guardian, October 14, 2002


"But Havelock would insist that the epics constitute the accumulated wisdom of the culture, beyond which the audience (thoroughly inculcated with the teachings of the epics) cannot go. "

Michael E. Hobart and Zachary S. Schiffman, Information Ages
