"Higher than the highest human thought can reach is God's ideal
for His children. Godliness--godlikeness--is the goal to be
reached. Before the student there is opened a path of continual
progress. He has an object to achieve, a standard to attain,
that includes everything good, and pure, and noble. He will
advance as fast and as far as possible in every branch of true
knowledge. But his efforts will be directed to objects as much
higher than mere selfish and temporal interests as the heavens
are higher than the earth." Education, page 82 |
