Quote #51 on Education Struggle Quotes >> Learning and Eccentric Thought

“The man next on the bench may have a tale to tell of religious persecution that drove him from other lands to liberty and his push-cart on Rivington Street. He talks politics with a slant toward weird theories, and reads books on political philosophy you have put off reading -- say till next winter. They are trying at the Education Alliance to set him on the right track because they know the great fear and suspicion that besets him after sudden release from social and political repression.”
