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

No one can be free unless he is independent.

The child, in fact, once he feels sure of himself, will no longer seek the approval of authority after every step.

We must help the child to act for himself, will for himself, think for himself; this is the art of those who aspire to serve the spirit.

Two things are necessary, the development of individuality and the participation of the individual in a truly social life.

Order is ... the true key to rapidity of reaction.
