“I am much afraid that the universities will prove to be the great gates of hell, unless they diligently labour in explaining the Holy Scriptures, and engraving them in the hearts of youth. I advise no one to place his child where the Scriptures do not reign paramount. Every institution in which men are not unceasingly occupied with the Word of God, must become corrupt.”
Martin Luther
(Quoted in History of the Reformation of the Sixteenth century, Volume 2; pg 102-103 by Jean Henri Merle D 'Aubigne)
