One of the first issues I dealt with was the struggle to find a language, to find my own words.
The child, unhampered, does not waste time.
The freest child is the child who is most interested in what he is doing, and at whose hand are the materials for his work or play.
A lifetime is not too long to spend in learning about the world.
Children. . . need most of the same things adults need--consideration, respect for their work, the knowledge that they and the things they do are taken seriously.
Children learn eagerly and well when they have need of the knowledge.
Childhood’s work is learning, and it is in his play. . . that the child works at his job.
It is amazing how the public steadfastly refuse to attend the third day of a match when so often the last day produces the best and most exciting cricket.
Winning has a joy and discrete purity to it that cannot be replaced by anything else.
The truth is, the liberal policies of the elite class have done little to improve the lot of those who depend so much on them. In America's black communities, where the goodies have been flowing for decades, rather than seeing improvements in terms of upward mobility, we are seeing deteriorating family structure, increases in violent crimes, growing poverty, and growing dependence. Even with such a blatant record of failure, there is slavish devotion to the elite class who continue to promise more goodies in exchange for votes.
I think you will agree the sign of a civilised society is a regular dining schedule.
