“Сюне усети, че се изчервява, опитваше се да се овладее с мисли за лед, лимони и белина; обикновено помагаше, но не и сега.”

“Books ... rarely, if ever, talk about what children can make of themselves, about the powers that from the day or moment of birth are present in every child.”

“We can always count on people to hate and to fear.To harm one another and to be harmed.To kill and be killed.It is what opens the gate.”

“Only to the degree that people have what they need, that they are healthy and unafraid, that their lives are varied, interesting, meaningful, productive, joyous, can we begin to judge, or even guess, their nature. Few people, adults or children, now live such lives.”

“It is hard not to feel that there must be something very wrong with much of what we do in school, if we feel the need to worry so much about what many people call 'motivation'. A child has no stronger desire than to make sense of the world, to move freely in it, to do the things that he sees bigger people doing.”

“Some people are just afraid of what's different. It doesn't mean different is bad. It just means different is different. ”
