“For more than a hundred years much complaint has been made of the unmethodical way in which schools are conducted, but it is only within the last thirty that any serious attempt has been made to find a remedy for this state of things.

“Not the children of the rich or of the powerful only, but of all alike, boys and girls, both noble and ignoble, rich and poor, in all cities and towns, villages and hamlets, should be sent to school. Education is indeed necessary for all, and this is evident if we consider the different degrees of ability. No one doubts that those who are stupid need instruction, that they may shake off their natural dullness. But in reality those who are clever need it far more, since an active mind, if not occupied with useful things, will busy itself with what is useless, curious, and pernicious.” IfsNeedsShouldMindMayChildrenDifferentRealitySchoolGirlNaturalAbilityPoorPowerfulCitiesBoysRichDoubtStupidDegreesTownsBusyActiveNobleCleverCuriousUselessShakesVillageInstructionEvidentRich And PoorBoy And GirlPerniciousDullnessSchool EducationIgnobleUseful ThingsActive MindsCities And Towns Author:John Amos Comenius
