And strew flowers upon the pathways that lead to Knowledge

From the introduction to From The Illustrated London Reading Book, 1851.

To deprive Instruction of the terrors with which the young but too often regard it, and strew flowers upon the pathways that lead to Knowledge, is to confer a benefit upon all who are interested in the cause of Education, either as Teachers or Pupils.

Strewing flowers on the pathways to Knowledge. Love it.
