The Dewy Morn Quotes
Showing 1-1 of 1
“All of you with little children, and who have no need to count expense, or even if you have such need, take them somehow into the country, among green grass and yellow wheat – among trees – by hills and streams, if you wish their highest education, that of the heart and soul, to be completed.
Therein they shall find a secret, a knowledge not to be found in books. They shall know the sun and the wind, the running water, the breast of the broad earth. They will forget their books. They will never forget the grassy fields.
If you wish your children to think deep things, to feel the holiest emotions, take them to the woods and hills and give them the freedom of the meadows”
