Education must start from birth.

It is not the child as a physical but as a psychic being that can provide a strong impetus to the betterment of mankind. It is the spirit of the child that can determine the course of human progress and lead it perhaps even to a higher form of civilization.

The child has a mind able to absorb knowledge. He has the power to teach himself.

The child becomes a person through work.

The role of education is to interest the child profoundly in an external activity to which he will give all his potential

In the psychological realm of relationship between teacher and child, the teacher's part and its techniques are analogous to those of the valet; they are to serve, and to serve well: to serve the spirit.

Freedom in intellectual work is found to be the basis of internal discipline.
