“The maxim, that governments ought to train the people in the way in which they should go, sounds well. But is there any reason for believing that a government is more likely to lead the people in the right way than the people to fall into the right way of themselves?” Thomas Babington Macaulay, (1800-1859) [Lord Macaulay] 1st Baron Macaulay, British historian.
