Excerpt from Greek and What Next? An Address: Solomos' Hymn to Liberty, a Poem, Read Before the Alumni Association of Brown University, June 17, 1884
"A decline in the state of Greek scholarship implies even more than the failure of esteem for the most valuable and influential of all languages; it involves with it a gradual but certain decay of general culture, the sacrifice of learning to science, the neglect of the history of man and of thought for the sake of facts relating to the external world." - Isaac Todhunter, Conflict, of Studies, p. 135.
