“Every human being...is endowed with a power akin to that of the Creator—individuality, power to think and to do…institutions of learning [should produce] individuals who are masters and not slaves of circumstances, individuals who possess breadth of mind, clearness of thought, and the courage of their convictions. Such an education strengthens the character, so that truth and uprightness are not sacrificed to selfish desire or worldly ambition. Instead of some master passion becoming a power to destroy, every motive and desire is brought into conformity to the great principles of right. As the perfection of God’s character is dwelt upon, the mind is renewed and the soul is recreated in His image.”—Ellen G. White
