Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Meaning of Education Education commences at the mother´s knee, and every word spoken within the hearsay of little children tends toward the formation of character. - Hosea Ballou. Let the soldier be abroad if he will; he can do nothing in this age. There is another personage less imposing in the eyes of some, perhaps insignificant. The schoolmaster is abroad, and I trust to him, armed with his primer, against the soldier in full military array. - Lord Brougham. The true purpose of education is to cherish and unfold the seed of immortality already sown within us; to develop, to their fullest extent, the capacities of every kind with which the God who made us has endowed us. - Mrs. Jameson. Education elevates a man above the pressure of material interests. It makes him superior to the pleasures and the pains of a world which is but his temporary home, filling his mind with higher subjects than the occupations of life will themselves provide him with. - James Anthony Froude. Till we all attain unto a full-grown man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. - Paul.
