The Superstition of School/ Paradox and Dream

The Superstition of School Chesterton talks about the snags in education. He speaks about the educated thinks far too much of education. That if you are educated why spend so much time explaining to yourself how educated you are. He Also speaks about the half-educated always think everything of education. The paradox is that we don’t really need education but because the way the world is that’s the only way we could survive.

Paradox and Dream Steinbeck talks about the way we overindulge on the things we are fortune to have. This particular paradox that caught my attention was as Americans we are self-reliant but at the same time completely dependent. As Americans we have the easy way out for instance, the store, cars, free education. Also the way technology is growing as Steinbeck said we are wanting more for our self as well as the next generation is more than what we can handle.
