Remy de Gourmont Quotes
Science is the only truth and it is the great lie. It knows nothing, and people think it knows everything. It is misrepresented.

It is the need to know stifling the need to live. It is the genius of knowledge vivisecting the vital genius.

Well, part of it is a longstanding belief - it's been in our education establishment at least since the 1930s - that somehow children should be allowed to discover knowledge for themselves, that they should construct their own knowledge.
