Peace is what every human being is craving for, and it can be brought about by humanity through the child.

The undisciplined child enters into discipline by working in the company of others; not being told he is naughty.” “Discipline is, therefore, primarily a learning experience and less a punitive experience if appropriately dealt with.

Growth is not merely a harmonious increase in size, but a transformation.

The environment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences.

Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.

The child can only develop fully by means of experience in his environment. We call such experience 'work'.

Whoever touches the life of the child touches the most sensitive point of a whole which has roots in the most distant past and climbs toward the infinite future.
