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

The greatness of the human personality begins at the hour of birth. From this almost mystic affirmation there comes what may seem a strange conclusion: that education must start from birth.

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

We shall walk together on this path of life, for all things are part of the universe and are connected with each other to form one whole unity.

Our aim is not merely to make the child understand, and still less to force him to memorize, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him to his innermost core.

The first idea that the child must acquire, in order to be actively disciplined, is that of the difference between good and evil.

This is education, understood as a help to life; an education from birth, which feeds a peaceful revolution and unites all in a common aim, attracting them as to a single centre. Mothers, fathers, politicians: all must combine in their respect and help for this delicate work of formation, which the little child carries on in the depth of a profound psychological mystery, under the tutelage of an inner guide. This is the bright new hope for mankind.
