The child’s progress does not depend only on his age, but also on being free to look around him.

The essential thing is to arouse such an interest that it engages the child’s whole personality.

Education today, in this particular social period, is assuming truly unlimited importance. And the increased emphasis on its practical value can be summed up in one sentence: education is the best weapon for peace.

The work of education is divided between the teacher and the environment.

We do not believe in the educative power of words and commands alone, but seek cautiously, and almost without the child's knowing it, to guide his natural activity.

The more the capacity to concentrate is developed, the more often the profound tranquility in work is achieved, then the clearer will be the manifestation of discipline within the child.

The development of the individual can be described as a succession of new births at consecutively higher levels.
