Afternoon Amusements

This quote is on the back of Volume 3 of Catch the Vision. It's the prescriptive cure to what's ailing our country:

"There is only one way to improve the taste of a nation. It cannot be done in a hurry and it cannot be done by force. It can only be accomplished by exposing the people patiently to that which is truly 'good,' to that which is truly 'noble'..

"Try and persuade our children to make the good choice for themselves by exposing them just as much as possible to that which is a true product of divine inspiration and honest human craftmanship....

"In the end, those able to see and look for themselves will then make the right decisions and because they will do it on their own volition, it will be a lasting one"

--Hendrik Willem Van Loon
