Side 32 - Promote, then, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened.
Side 33 - A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy, or, perhaps, both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.

Side 5 - that though they have been in operation more than ten years, and on an average more than 3000 have been educated at them every year, not one of those educated there has been ever committed for a crime. In New York, a similar effect has been observed.
Side 34 - Among the first, perhaps the very first instrument for the improvement of the condition of men, is knowledge ; and to the acquisition of much of the knowledge adapted to the wants, the comforts, and enjoyments of human life, public institutions and seminaries of learning are essential.
