Labor under their current leadership want to be the Downtown Abbey party when it comes to educational opportunity. They think working class children should stick to the station in life they were born into - they should be happy to be recognized for being good with their hands and not presume to get above themselves.

The quality of a leader is reflected in the standards they set for themselves.

Imparting knowledge is only lighting other men's candles at our lamp without depriving ourselves of any flame.

We read deeply for varied reasons most of them familiar: that we cannot know enough people profoundly enough that we need to know ourselves better that we require knowledge not just of self and others but of the way things are.
