AFRICAN PROVERB
AN AUTHORITY WITHOUT WISDOM IS LIKE AN AXE WITHOUT AN EDGE
WORDS OF HAILE SELASSIE 1ST
“Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes
man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness
nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of
his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living
is education. But, ' Man cannot live by bread alone '. Man, after all,
is also composed of intellect and soul. Therefore, education in general,
and higher education in particular, must aim to provide, beyond the
physical, food for the intellect and soul. That education which ignores
man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power
can not be considered true education.”
