We Carry With Us Habits

Good Teaching Is Forever Being On The Cutting Edge Of A Child's Competence.

We Are Storytelling Creatures, And As Children We Acquire Language To Tell Those Stories That We Have Inside Us.

Teaching Is The Canny Art Of Intellectual Temptation

We Cannot, Even Given Our Most Imaginative Efforts, Construct A Concept Of Self That Does Not Impute Some Causal Influence Of Prior Mental States On Later Ones.

It Is Sentimentalism To Assume That The Teaching Of Life Can Always Be Fitted To The Child's Interests, Just As It Is Empty Formalism To Force The Child To Parrot The Formulas Of Adult Society. Interests Can Be Created And Stimulated.
