“מורה מעדיף חמורים אחדים בכיתתו, מאשר גאון אחד ויחיד. ובעצם הצדק עמו, כי אין זה מתפקידו לייצר אנשי רוח מופלאים, אלא יודעי לטינית טובים, מביני חשבון ואזרחים ישרי לב נאמנים. אבל, מי סובל יותר ממי, המורה מתלמידו או להפך? מי משניהם עריץ יותר, מי מציק למי יותר, ומי משניהם הורס ומחלל חלקים מנפש הזולת ואת חיי הזולת? את זאת אין לבדוק מבלי להתמרמר.”
