There are many who hold, as I do, that the most important part of life is not the age of university studies, but the first one, the period from birth to the age of six. For that is the time when a man's intelligence itself, his greatest implement, is being formed. But not only his intelligence; the full totality of his psychic powers.

The land is where our roots are. The children must be taught to feel and live in harmony with the Earth.

The role of education is to interest the child profoundly in an external activity to which he will give all his potential

The child who concentrates is immensely happy

At one year of age the child says his first intentional wordhis babbling has a purpose, and this intention is a proof of conscious intelligenceHe becomes ever more aware that language refers to his surroundings, and his wish to master it consciously becomes also greater.Subconsciously and unaided, he strains himself to learn, and this effort makes his success all the more astonishing.

The real preparation for education is the study of one's self.

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