Strana 15 - ... which man's intellect in vain attempts to supply; nay, he wants for himself that milk of kindness which he would impart; it is his greatest need, without it he is comfortless; it is not his to give, but to receive for his own solace; and equally to him and to the child it must be communicated by woman. No education from which the mother, virtually or actually, is excluded, can suffice and satisfy; no education can be normal in which woman has no part; for without her, though the understanding...
Strana 4 - A child is a being endowed with all the faculties of human nature, but none of them developed : a bud not yet opened. When the bud uncloses, every one of the leaves unfolds, not one remains зо behind. Such must be the process of education.
Strana 26 - Wolfe, where'er he fought, Put so much of his heart into his act, That his example had a magnet's force, And all were swift to follow whom all loved.
Strana 30 - ... light of the rising sun and to the praise of their heavenly Father. All day he stood amongst them teaching the ignorant and assisting the helpless, encouraging the weak and admonishing the transgressor. His hand was daily with them joined in theirs, his eye beaming with benevolence rested on theirs. He wept when they wept, and rejoiced when they rejoiced. He was to them a father, and they were to him as children.
Strana 29 - ... comfort and every enjoyment, and whatever hardships they had to endure he was their fellow-sufferer. He partook of their meals and slept among them. In the evening he prayed with them before they went to bed; and from his conversation they dropped into the arms of slumber. At the first dawn of light it was his voice that called them to the light of the rising sun and to the praise of their heavenly Father. All day he stood amongst them teaching the ignorant and assisting the helpless, encouraging...
Strana 15 - The man of genius has equal reverence for women and childhood; he fails not to perceive how suited each is for the other in the relation of tutor and pupil. No man can sympathize with a child's feelings so truly — so intimately as woman; he is deficient in the kindness which in her overflows; from her heart she pours out nourishment to the infant mind which man's intellect in vain attempts to supply; nay, he wants for himself that milk of kindness which he would impart; it is his greatest need,...
Strana 31 - Never, perhaps, has the idea of domestic life, in the highest sense of the word, been more beautifully realized, never the effect of a Christian family spirit more powerfully illustrated, than it was in the flourishing times of the establishment at Yverdun ; in which persons of all ages, of all ranks, of all nations, persons of the most different gifts and abilities, and of the most opposite characters, were united together by that unaffected love which Pestalozzi, in years a man verging to the grave,...
Strana 29 - ... to them all in all. From morning to night he was the centre of their existence. To him they owed every comfort and every enjoyment, and whatever hardships they had to endure he was their fellow-sufferer.
Strana 31 - Christian family spirit more powerfully illustrated, than it was in the flourishing times of the establishment at Yverdun ; in which persons of all ages, of all ranks, of all nations, persons of the most different gifts and abilities, and of the most opposite characters, were united together by that unaffected love which Pestalozzi, in years a man verging to the grave, but in heart and mind a genuine child, seemed to breathe out continually, and to impart to all that came, within his circle. His...
Strana 15 - Women should be permitted, both by example and precept, to be the moral teacher of a truly normal school. Christian morals taught by female lips cease to be syllogistic disputations, and become at once living principles, receiving illustration not only in the pictures of fancy, and the moving shapes of strong imagination, but in the affectionate reality, true loving-kindness, good-will, and well-being, which live in woman. Nothing merely representative, but all is essential, voluntary, benevolent,...
