“Since the art of grammar is the foundation, and, as it were the very soil on which all other arts are built up, so that if there be anything weak and faulty in the knowledge of grammar the whole superstructure must needs be unstable, the more attentive care must be devoted to securing a firm grasp of grammar.”-Cardinal Jacopo Sadoleto, De Pueris Recte Instituendis(E.T. Campagnac Translation.)
