13John Henry Cardinal Newman
- the man who has learned to think and to reason
and to compare and to discriminate and to
analyze, who has refined his taste, and formed
his judgment, and sharpened his mental vision,
will not indeed at once be a lawyer, or a
pleader, or an orator, or a statesman, or a
physician, . . . but he will be placed in that
state of intellect in which he can take up any
one of the sciences or callings I have referred
to, or any other for which he has a taste or
special talent, with an ease, a grace, a
versatility, and a success, to which another is a
stranger. . . .
14John Henry Cardinal Newman
- I say that a cultivated intellect, because it is
a good in itself, brings with it a power and a
grace to every work and occupation which it
undertakes, and enables us to be more useful, and
to a greater number (The Idea of the University.
U Notre Dame Press,1982, pp. 124 6).

26Techne
- "The kind of knowledge possessed by an expert
maker it gives him a clear conception of the why
and wherefore, the how and the with what of the
making process and enables him, through the
capacity to offer a rational account of it, to
preside over his activity with secure mastery"
(1993, p. 9).

87Rhetoric is not mere techne . . .
Classical rhetoric, in its most ethical and
ancient manifestation, is a way of discussing the
truth with one's fellows in a manner that
respects their freedom and dignity, and attempts
to move them toward the Good.
