Quote of the Day (Cyril Connolly, on Education and Concentration)

“No education is worth having that does not teach the lesson of concentration on a task, however unattractive. These lessons, if not learnt early, will be learnt, if at all, with pain and grief in later life.”— English essayist, novelist, and editor Cyril Connolly (1903-1974), Enemies of Promise (1938)
