Bring the child to the consciousness of his own dignity and he will feel free.

There is in the child a special kind of sensitivity which leads him to absorb everything about him, and it is this work of observing and absorbing that alone enables him to adapt himself to life

Concentration is the key that opens up to the child the latent treasures within him.

The child who concentrates is immensely happy

The child will reveal himself through work.

The activity of the child has always been looked upon as an expression of his vitality.

When the children had completed an absorbing bit of work, they appeared rested and deeply pleased. It almost seemed as if a road had opened up within their souls that led to all their latent powers, revealing the better part of themselves. They exhibited a great affability to everyone, put themselves out to help others and seemed full of good will.
