Frank Zappa, 1981: "Schools train people to be ignorant... They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus."

"They prepare you to be a usable victim for a military industrial complex that needs manpower."

"As long as you're just smart enough to do a job, and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you're going to be alright."

"Schools mechanically and very specifically try and breed out any hint of creative thought in the kids that are coming up."
