Richard Mitchell Quotes

«Literacy is not, as it is considered in our schools, a PORTION of education. It IS education. It is at once the ability AND the inclination of the mind to find knowledge, to pursue understanding, and out of knowledge and understanding, not out of received attitudes and values or emotional responses, however worthy, to make judgments.»
«You can shoot the tiger, or stay out of his way, but you cannot pronounce him a vegetarian»
«I never even worked on (computers) out on the streets -- never even been on the Internet, ... I didn't even know how to turn them on.»
«There is only one Education, and it has only one goal: the freedom of the mind. Anything that needs an adjective, be it civics education, or socialist education, or Christian education, or whatever-you-like education, is not education, and it has some different goal. The very existence of modified educations is testimony to the fact that their proponents cannot bring about what they want in a mind that is free. An education that cannot do its work in a free mind, and so must teach by homily and precept in the service of these feelings and attitudes and beliefs rather than those, is pure and unmistakable tyranny.»

«We have a 15-year contractual agreement that was negotiated with Interface in 2001. I think the agreement was signed in January of 2002.»
«Green was shooting 3s left and right. Coach told me to guard him real tight. It was all desire and toughness. Our team has no superstars, but we have heart.»
«We had to take it inside. The first half, we were all shooting up 3s and they weren't going in.»
«It's going to turn the land into a marsh for the people who live on the end of the street touching the river. We already get wetter than what other parts of the county are used to, but once you start building and moving all that dirt around I can only assume its going to impact those houses.»
«We decided if they would let us march, we wouldn't overly confront them.»
