To have a vision of the cosmic plan, in which every form of life depends on directed movements which have effects beyond their conscious aim, is to understand the child's work and be able to guide it better.

To assist a child we must provide him with an environment which will enable him to develop freely.

A humankind abandoned in its earlier formative stage becomes its own greatest threat to survival.

We must clearly understand that when we give the child freedom and independence, we are giving freedom to a worker already braced for action, who cannot live without working and being active.

The child is an enigma… He has the highest potentialities, but we do not know what he will be.

We must support as much as possible the child's desires for activity; not wait on him, but educate him to be independent.

The child will reveal himself through work.
