“I think my deepest criticism of the educational system . . . is that it's all based upon a distrust of the student. Don't trust him to follow his own leads; guide him; tell him what to do; tell him what he should think; tell him what he should learn. Consequently at the very age when he should be developing adult characteristics of choice and decision making, when he should be trusted on some of those things, trusted to make mistakes and to learn from those mistakes, he is, instead, regimented and shoved into a curriculum, whether it fits him or not.” ThinkingShouldAgeChoicesDecisionMistakeStudentsFitAdultsCriticismEducationalGuidesDevelopingCharacteristicsMaking MistakesDecision MakingTrustedDistrustDon't TrustCurriculumEducational SystemChoices And Decisions Author:Carl Rogers

“The romantic temper, so often and so grievously misinterpreted and not more by others than by its own, is an insecure, unsatisfied, and impatient temper which sees no fit abode here for its ideals and chooses therefore to behold them under insensible figures. As a result of this choice it comes to disregard certain limitations. Its figures are blown to wild adventures, lacking the gravity of solid bodies, and the mind that has conceived them ends by disowning them.” MindEndsBodyCertainChoicesResultsFiguresAdventureFitIdealsLimitationTemperGravityLackingInsecureAestheticsImpatientRomanticismDisregardAbodeUnsatisfiedInsensibleMisinterpretedDisowning Author:James Joyce
