“When we accept any discipline for ourselves, we try to avoid everything except that which is necessary for our purpose; it is this purposefulness, which belongs to the adult mind, that we force upon school children.

“I think when we talk about corporal punishment, and we have to think about our own children, and we are rather reluctant, it seems to me, to have other people administering punishment to our own children, because we are reluctant, it puts a special obligation on us to maintain order and to send children out from our homes who accept the idea of discipline. So I would not be for corporal punishment in the school, but I would be for very strong discipline at home so we don't place an unfair burden on our teachers.” PeopleThinkingChildrenIdeasHomeSeemsWould BeSchoolOrderStrongAcceptingTeacherSpecialDisciplineBurdenPunishmentObligationVery StrongUnfairReluctantCorporal Punishment Author:John F.

“Honesty comes only with sound health, physically and psychologically, and an honest mind cannot be separated from the most genuine acknowledgment of expression. It should be recognized that pure perfection is unobtainable. Therefore, the realization that one's irrevocable faults and deficiencies must be faced guides us toward the first step of learning. We must each accept any situation as it actually is, with dignity. In that fine balance of acceptance of self and the mission to better oneself, compassion, humility, and discipline are nurtured.” ShouldMindFirstsSelfSoundCompassionSituationAcceptingStepsHonestHonestyAcceptanceHumilityExpressionFineBalanceDisciplinePureDignityPerfectionFaultsOneselfMissionsGuidesGenuineRealizationSelf AcceptanceFirst StepsDeficiencyAcknowledgmentIrrevocable Author:Midori Goto
“A fish is free as long as it stays in the water. If it suddenly declares that it wants its freedom to fly in the air like a bird, disaster occurs. A train is free as long as it stays on the track. However, if it demands freedom to take off down a major highway, the result is destruction and devastation. We too can only experience true freedom in its fullest if we remain within the framework of freedom. Often this requires accepting responsibility and practicing discipline.” IfsWantLongWaterResultsResponsibilityAcceptingAirDisciplineDemandMajorsBirdDestructionTrainTrackFishesDisasterHighwaysFrameworkDevastationTrue FreedomAccepting Responsibility Author:Gigi Graham
