Quote

The great incorrectness of educators is their desire that young people liked what they like at the old age or the age of maturity; that they think that the life of young people does not differ from that of the older people; that they want to abolish the difference between tastes and desires; that they want that the teachings, instructions, and the force of necessity were submitted to experience. - Giacomo Leopardi
