A Classical Gem On Printing

CoI. Robert G. Ingersoll, that peerles's orator and statesman, has contributed this impressiae parugraph to his many other imperishable thoughts and zuords:

The lips of the human race had been sealed. Printing gave pinions to thought. It preserved ideas. It made ir possible for man to bequeath to the future the riches of his brain and the wealth of his soul. When people read they begin to reason, and when they reason they progress.
