     And behold, I say unto you, the Supreme Genius doth not facultize ; the glory is not what it does but what it is ; it hath no old nor new, no here nor there ; it stays not to remember, to wonder, to compare ; to the vehm of the patrician Presence, omniscience were an idle labor and delay, and prophecy is forestalled and bootless in the sole sufficiency whose pæan hath no echo.

   • 1906, Granville Stanley Hall, Youth: Its Education, Regimen and Hygiene:

     Indeed, it is a question not of schools but of civilization, whether mental training, from the three R's to science and philosophy, shall really make men better, as the theory of popular education assumes, and whether the genius and talent of the few who can receive and bear it can be brought to the full maturity of a knowledge fully facultized—a question paramount, even in a republic, to the general education of the many.
