The hands are the instruments of man’s intelligence.

The education of even a small child, therefore, does not aim at preparing him for school, but for life.

Social grace, inner discipline and joy. These are the birthright of the human being who has been allowed to develop essential human qualities.

At about a year and a half, the child discovers another fact, and that is that each thing has its own name.

A child's work is to create the person she/he will become.

Order is not goodness; but perhaps it is the indispensable road to arrive at it.

By the age of three, the child has already laid down the foundations of his personality as a human being, and only then does he need the help of special scholastic influences. So great are the conquests he has made that one may well say: the child who goes to school at three is already a little man.
