As
long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs
can only be reached through exams, so long must we take this
examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was
contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one
would be a penny the stupider.
-- Edward M. Forster
1879-1970, British Novelist, Essayist
Do not on any account attempt to write on both sides of the paper at
once.
-- W. C. Sellar
Examinations, sir, are pure humbug from beginning to end. If a man
is a gentleman, he knows quite enough, and if he is not a gentleman,
whatever he knows is bad for him.
-- Oscar Wilde
1856-1900, British Author, Wit |
