Quote by Alice Oseman

“It wasn't a big deal. It just made me feel weird. I thought I enjoyed all this stuff, but maybe I was an academic at heart after all. I kept peeling of layers of my personality, but I seemed to be going in circles. Everytime I thought I'd worked out what I really enjoyed, I started to second-guess myself. Maybe I just didn't enjoy anything anymore.”

“Tastend door het stof, happend in de ijskoude winterlucht, zo ziet uw overgrootvader de eerste mensen vanonder het puin van Cinema Rex verschijnen, gelijk levende doden, met een verdwaasde blik en bloed dat uit hun oren loopt, niet wetend welke hel ze hebben achtergelaten en in welke onderwereld ze nu zijn terechtgekomen. De raket, het Vergeldingswapen Twee, heeft zich diep in een overvolle cinema geboord, als een bliksemschicht door een Arische god geslingerd, een god die zich geen zak meer aantrekt of hij doel treft of niet, als de schrik er maar inzit.”

“A common misconception of education comes when the definition of education narrows to the intellectual. The child is compartmentalized. He is not seen as a whole person, fully-integrated with physical, emotional, spiritual and intellectual capacities. Thus, if an educational program attempts to address the child's intellect while ignoring his spiritual and emotional development, the approach is sadly ignoring the true reality of the child. Likewise, those who separate the spiritual and emotional part of a child from the intellectual make a big mistake. You cannot delegate only the intellectual training of your child to professionals and retain just the spiritual and emotional for yourself. Whatever class is taught, the whole child is affected.”

“I am not saying that the path I have chosen will work for everyone, and I am also not saying that the formal schooling system has no successes. The prevalence of such arrogance is what has led us to adopt a uniform approach that has taken advantage of taxpayers, caused children to feel insufficient because they couldn't meet an absurd standard that held no relevance to their future success, and produced grown-ups lacking fundamental abilities required to sustain oneself, which is the ultimate benchmark of maturity.”
