Steam engines - Macchine a vapore - Electtricità "Insegnare è insegnare a pensare. Mandare a ripetere a memoria quel che non si capisce, vuol dire allevare dei pappagalli. Insegnate ai bambini a fare domande affinchè, domandando il perchè di quel che si comanda loro di fare, apprendano ad obbedire alla ragione: non all'autorità, come dei minorati, nè all'abitudine, come gli stupidi.
