I suppose it is because nearly all children go to school nowadays and have things arranged for them that they seem so forlornly unable to produce their own ideas.
Agatha ChristieTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
Real education must ultimately be limited to men who insist on knowing. The rest is mere sheep herding.
Ezra PoundTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think - rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with the thoughts of other men.
James BeattieTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
It is the mark of a truly educated man to know what not to read.
Ezra Taft BensonTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
Unless education promotes character making, unless it helps men to be more moral, more just to their fellows, more law abiding, more discriminatingly patriotic and public spirited, it is not worth the trouble taken to furnish it.
William Howard TaftTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
Education does not mean teaching people what they do not know. It means teaching them to behave as they do not behave.
John RuskinTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
We can get too easily bogged down in the academic part of homeschooling, a relatively minor part of the whole, which is to raise competent, caring, literate, happy people.
Diane Flynn KeithTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
An eternal question about children is, how should we educate them? Politicians and educators consider more school days in a year, more science and math, the use of computers and other technology in the classroom, more exams and tests, more certification for teachers, and less money for art. All of these responses come from the place where we want to make the child into the best adult possible, not in the ancient Greek sense of virtuous and wise, but in the sense of one who is an efficient part of the machinery of society. But on all these counts, soul is neglected.
Thomas MooreTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
The home is the first and most effective place to learn the lessons of life: truth, honor, virtue, self control, the value of education, honest work, and the purpose and privilege of life. Nothing can take the place of home in rearing and teaching children, and no worldly success can compensate for failure in the home.
David O. McKayTag: education learning homeschooling homeschool
There is no school equal to a decent home and no teacher equal to a virtuous parent.
