A Schoolmaster's Diary / Being Extracts from the Journal of Patrick Traherne, M.A., Sometime Assistant Master at Radchester and Marlton. |
A SCHOOLMASTER'S DIARY "The man who looks at this view, for the first time, with the naked eye, sees far more of it than the man who looks at it for the hundredth time through smoked glasses. Experience is the smoke on the glasses; it's the curse of our profession. We are all much more efficient when we're young than we ever are afterwards. Give me the young and inexperienced man."—"The Lanchester Tradition." | Title page for "A Schoolmaster's Diary! PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN AT THE COMPLETE PRESS WEST NORWOOD LONDON
TO ELSPETH TRAHERNE WITHOUT WHOSE VALUABLE HELP I SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOTALLY AT A LOSS WHAT TO INCLUDE AND WHAT TO OMIT IN MEMORY OF PATRICK
