"With the advent of democracy and modern industrial condition," Dewey wrote in 1897, "it is impossible to foretell definitely just what civilization will be like twenty years from now.  Hence, it is impossible to prepare the child for any precise set of conditions."

Nothing like good ol' John Dewey after midnight.
