What Book is It???

I wonder if you can guess this quote: Beginning or ending paragraph from a book. Suggest the book and author.

Clues:

English Writer

Beginning Paragraph

and This Should Be Hard

"Now, what i want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which i bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which i bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!"

Any suggestions??
