It may be said that modern Europe with teachers who inform it that its realist instincts are beautiful, acts ill and honors what is ill.

It's commonly said that people who've been ill in childhood and who've had an upset education never really regret that they do. It means that you don't look at the world in the way that other people do, and if you were inclined to be a writer, that's a help.
John Keegan
