Excerpt from Select Essays of Macaulay: Milton, Bunyan, Johnson, Goldsmith, Madame D'arblay Such reading as is here offered the young student must be done as work, not as mere amusement. The pencil must be kept in constant use, and the note-book must be always at hand. The student must be his own annotator. No more in reading a piece of English than in working out an algebra lesson should the learner expect to have his work done for him. Only what he earns will he ever possess, though what he borrows from another, or has given him, may meet the requirements of an examination. N o pedagogic maxim can be adduced that shall favor giving the learner results without leading him through the processes through which the results were obtained.
