Order is not goodness; but perhaps it is the indispensable road to arrive at it.

Today, however, those things which occupy us in the field of education are the interests of humanity at large and of civilization, and before such great forces we can recognize only one country-the entire world.

The study of love and its utilization will lead us to the source from which it springs, The Child.

Only through freedom and environmental experience is it practically possible for human development to occur.

When the child goes out, it is the world itself that offers itself to him. Let us take the child out to show him real things instead of making objects which represent ideas and closing them up in cupboards.

Only practical work and experience lead the young to maturity.

The real preparation for education is a study of one's self. The training of the teacher...is something far more than a learning of ideas. It includes the training of character; it is a preparation of the spirit.
