- We feed and clothe and exercise our bodies, for example, in order to be able to do something with our minds. We employ our minds in order to acheive character…. We acheive character, personality, gentlemanliness in order to make our lives an art and to bring our souls into relation with the whole scheme of things, which is the divine nature. (John Gould Fletcher, “Education, Past and Present,” in I'll Take my Stand pp. 119-120)
