A man is worth, above all, the education he possesses, because only this is capable of harmoniously developing his faculties, in order to maximize them for the benefit of himself and others. […] Educating a society means making it progress, making it a harmonious and conjugated set of individual forces, in turn developed to their fullest extent. And we can only make progress and develop a society by ensuring that the continuous, incessant and persistent action of education reaches human beings, from three aspects: physical, intellectual and moral.
