The only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood, when no one can teach them anything!

The child is truly a miraculous being, and this should be felt deeply by the educator.

Do not offer the child the content of the mind, but the order for that content.

Work is necessary; it can be nothing less than a passion; a person is happy in accomplishment.

The environment itself will teach the child, if every error he makes is manifest to him, without the intervention of a parent of teacher, who should remain a quiet observer of all that happens.

The child's conquest of independence begins with his first introduction to life. While he is developing, he perfects himself and overcomes every obstacle that he finds in his path. A vital force is active within him, and this guides his efforts towards their goal. It is a force called the 'horme', by Sir Percy Nunn.

Deceit is a kind of garment that conceals the soul. It might even be compared to a whole wardrobe, so many are its guises.
