Ignorance, or the want of knowledge and literature, the appointed lot of all
born to poverty, and the drudgeries of life, is the only opiate capable of
infusing that insensibility which can enable them to endure the miseries of the
one, and the fatigues of the other. It is a cordial administered by the gracious
hand of providence; of which they ought never to be deprived by an ill-judged
and improper education. It is the basis of all subordination, the support of
society, and the privilege of individuals . . .
