Trevor Wheeker’s Reviews > A Defense of Latin and Classical Education > Status Update

“Impetuosity does not reflect. The super-annuated, ever- changing mind cannot speak to the whole of life. It cannot contemplate; it cannot assign value. It can drive us to build new roads, but it cannot explain where we want to go. It can build rockets to Mars and beyond, but it cannot tell us whether it’s wise to go there. It cannot answer questions it long ago lost the wisdom to ask.”
