Forster, E. M. (E. M. Forster)

Spoon feeding in the long run teaches us nothing but the shape of the spoon.
-- E. M. Forster

As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take the 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.
-- E. M. Forster

Only connect! That was the whole of her sermon. Only connect the prose and the passion, and both will be exalted, and human love will be seen at its height. Live in fragments no longer. Only connect, and the beast and the monk, robbed of the isolation that is life to either, will die.
-- E. M. Forster

How can I know what I think, till I see what I say?
-- E. M. Forster
