Literary Quote I Like

"Men who can read and figure can deal with the world," said Jason Russell from his place at the side of the room. "If you are going to make your way, you must know how to read and write and figure. If you cannot do these things, you will be entirely at the mercy of those who do, and you will be deaf and mute to all those you seek to reach."
--Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, The Law in Charity
