"To do something to instruct, but more to undeceive, the timid and admiring student;<.
to excite him to place more confidence in his own strength, and less in the infallibility
of great names;--to help him to emancipate his judgment from the shackles of authority;
--to teach him to distinguish between shewy language and sound sense;-to warn him
not to pay himself with words ;--to shew him, that what may tickle the ear or dazzle
the imagination, will not always inform the judgment;---to dispose him rather to fast on
ignorance than to feed himself with error."

Fragment on Government.
