"We believe that a genuine education [paideia] is not a subtlety politicked with words and with speech, but the healthy disposition of a prudent understanding and true opinions about good things and evil, noble things and shameful. Whoever then believes some things but teaches other things to those around him, he himself seems to be so far distant from education as he is also from being a good man."[2]
