The home was a closed sphere touched only at its edge by the world's evolution.

Nothing would more effectively further the development of education than for all flogging pedagogues to learn to educate with the head instead of with the hand.

Conventionality is the tacit agreement to set appearances before reality, form before content.

the higher the development of women, the more they suffer from the 'patriotic' mandate to bear many children to replace the nation's losses. For they know that, from the point of view of their personal development as well as that of the race, fewer but better children are to be preferred.

At every step the child should be allowed to meet the real experience of life; the thorns should never be plucked from his roses.

Education can give you a skill, but a liberal education can give you dignity.

Art, that great undogmatized church.
