Democracy has to be born anew every generation, and education is its midwife.

What's in a question, you ask? Everything. It is evoking stimulating response or stultifying inquiry. It is, in essence, the very core of teaching.

Mind is a verb not a noun.

Were all instructors to realize that the quality of mental process, not the production of correct answers, is the measure of educative growth something hardly less than a revolution in teaching would be worked.

Education, therefore, is a process of living and not a preparation for future living. Without some goals and some efforts to reach it, no man can live. Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.

In general, every stimulus directs activity. It does not simply excite it or stir it up, but directs it toward an object.

Nature is the mother and the habitat of man, even if sometimes a stepmother and an unfriendly home.
