Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man's life and work go on after his "death," whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not. There is no such thing as death according to our view! ↗

Man as an individual is a genius. But men in the mass form the headless monster, a great, brutish idiot that goes where prodded. ↗

I should like to be remembered as the man who raised a voice against... placing limitations on the freedom of the individual. ↗

Particular individuals who might never consider dropping out if they were in a different high school might decide to drop out if they attended a school where many boys and girls did so. ↗
