Within the child lies the fate of the future.

Adults have not understood children or adolescents and they are, as a consequence, in continual conflict with them.

Our care of the child should be governed, not by the desire to make him learn things, but by the endeavor always to keep burning within him that light which is called intelligence.

We teachers can only help the work going on, as servants wait upon a master.

We are the sowers - our children are those who reap. We labor so that future generations will be better and nobler than we are.

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

A child needs freedom within limits.
