I see that P.C. in Britain now is moving into the hard core of daftness. All in the name of equality, one of the fertile parents of political correctness. Equality, of course, is like democracy. It swims tantalisingly in the mind's eye of the beholder but neatly evades sober definition. And they are the real enemy of the people.
Education is about language, for without language there is nothing.
There is not much point in having an original thought if it cannot be transferred to another mind. A head full of poetry needs to be emptied into other heads. The art of lucid expression, of cogent thought, is frowned upon, especially, I fear, by the young. And yet the use of language can so easily be learned. Or, to put it another way, it can so easily be taught.
