"It is better my friend to have a Greek school in your
land then to have springs and rivers, as springs and rivers quell the thirst
of the body school however irrigates the soul. If your child educates
themselves they will become a true human being, being civilized they will
become useful to their nation.
This is the reason why you should build Greek schools.
Schools that will educate the young, illuminating and brightening
their scholarly minds. Just as the sun shines on the earth in clear
fair weather and the eyes see far and wide, in the same manner the mind can
see a future that is good or bad. By looking into the future
these young educated minds will be able to guard themselves against all that
is bad and sinful. School opens the doors to the church, as school
brings intellect to its people."
