Herbert Spencer
When men hire themselves out to shoot other men to order, asking nothing about the justice of their cause, I don't care if they are shot themselves.
Herbert Spencer
Life is not for learning nor is life for working, but learning and working are for life.
Herbert Spencer
Never educate a child to be a gentleman or lady alone, but to be a man, a woman.
Herbert Spencer
