-The quote i think is very true. It's good to see him think of somethin like this when he himself barely gave any effort during his school years.He is pretty much saying write stories or papers that will be good for youger generation to learn from, for teachers to teach from. So pretty much he wanted people to pick up good literary skills from good work such as his own.
