"But let us seek to implant in the soul the self-sacrificing spirit of the scientist with the reverent love of the disciple of Christ, and we shall have prepared the spirit of the teacher. From the child itself will he learn how to perfect himself as an educator." Maria Montessori, The Montessori Method, Chapter 1, p.13, Schocken Books, Inc., 1964.
"The jockey offers a piece of sugar to his horse before jumping into the saddle, the coachman beats his horse that he may respond to the signs given by the reins; and yet, neither of these runs so superbly as the free horse of the plains." Maria Montessori, The Montessori Method, Chapter 1, p.21, Schocken Books, Inc., 1964.
