A dictionary of Marshall McLuhan’s quotations

Perhaps it is not that the educator has been shouldered aside by men of action so much as he has been swamped by high-powered imitators. If education has now become the basic investment and activity of the electronic age, then the classroom educator can recover his role only by enlarging it beyond anything it ever was in any previous culture.
