THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - Anti-Intellectualism


THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

A lifetime of having to curb  the expression of original thought culminates so often in there being nothing left to express.

Liddel Hart quoted by Norman Dixon on page 162 of his book On The Psychology of Military Incompetence

Think about it.
Isn’t the present day rote learning type education system doing exactly this?
And so are the “do as you are told” organisations, aren’t they?
