THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - Creativity and Anti-Intellectualism
Academic and Creative Writing Journal Vikram Karve: THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - Anti-Intellectualism
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A lifetime of having to curb the expression of original thought culminates so often in there being nothing left to express.
Liddel Hart quoted by Norman Dixon on page 162 of his book On The Psychology of Military Incompetence
Think about it.
Isn’t the present day rote learning type education system doing exactly this?
And so are the “do as you are told” organisations, aren’t they?
