------------------------------
"A nation should require all its students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college rather than allow schools in different parts of the nation to determine which academic courses to offer."
------------------------------
"The video camera provides such an accurate and convincing record of contemporary life that it has become a more important form of documentation than written records."
------------------------------
"It is often necessary, even desirable, for political leaders to withhold information from the public."
------------------------------
"Governments must ensure that their major cities receive the financial support they need in order to thrive, because it is primarily in cities that a nation's cultural traditions are preserved and generated."

"All nations should help support the development of a global university designed to engage students in the process of solving the world's most persistent social problems."

------------------------------

------------------------------
"In any realm of life---whether academic, social, business, or political---the only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options."
------------------------------
"The study of history has value only to the extent that it is relevant to our daily lives."
------------------------------
"It is primarily through formal education that a culture tries to perpetuate the ideas it favors and discredit the ideas it fears."
