Drunk on Education

To you the educated, I say, you are drunk on the status of untrue assurances.

You cannot drive any more to get home, except there be a chauffeured vehicle driven by a designated driver, who is not the student of the past. To drive the driver must look forward to the direction of travel. But all you scholars are seated backwards, seeing only the past the archivist furnishes for you. There you have primarily, the specters and records of obsolescence.

Though you amass any fortune, it yet deprives you of true values that would have gotten you entrance on to broader lands.
