More From Thomas Jefferson

Because there are three classes of intellects: one which comprehends by itself; another which appreciates what others comprehend; and a third which neither comprehends by itself nor by the showing of others; the first is the most excellent, the second is good, the third is useless.

Freedom without organization of work would be useless. the child left free without means of work would go to waste, just as a new-born baby, if left free without nourishment, would die of starvation.the organization of the work, therefore, is the cornerstone of this new structure of goodness [in education], but even that organization would be in vain without the liberty to make use of it.

The necessary consequence of man's right to life is his right to self-defense. in a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use. all the reasons which make the initiation of physical force an evil, make the retaliatory use of physical force a moral imperative. if some "pacifist" society renounced the retaliatory use of force, it would be left helplessly at the mercy of the first thug who decided to be immoral. such a society would achieve the opposite of its intention: instead of abolishing evil, it would encourage and reward it.
