“Whatever discipline you exercise should be based on the goal your child is eventually to reach, namely, freedom and happiness. I would show him towards what he is growing, his ultimate fulfilment, and help him to adapt himself to that. In everything that you do, you should keep the goal in view, and hence your discipline must aim at helping the child to realize that at a certain stage he will be above all discipline.” ShouldChildrenHelpingShowsCertainGoalRealizingViewsGrowingStageDisciplineExerciseUltimateOur ChildrenAimYour ChildrenFulfilmentFreedom And Happiness Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti

We should very much try to change things for the better, that's the whole point of the Stoic discipline of action.” TryingHelpingActionUniverseAttitudeFateDisciplineUltimatePlanningEquanimityStoic Author:Massimo Pigliucci

“Western liberal humanism is not something that comes naturally to us: like an appreciation of art or poetry, it has to be cultivated. Humanism is itself a religion without God-not all religions, of course, are theistic.

“As a progressive discipline [biochemistry] belongs to the present century. From the experimental physiologists of the last century it obtained a charter, and, from a few pioneers of its own, a promise of success; but for the furtherance of its essential aim that century left it but a small inheritance of facts and methods. By its essential or ultimate aim I myself mean an adequate and acceptable description of molecular dynamics in living cells and tissues.” MeanFactsLastsLeftCenturyDisciplinePromiseEssentialsUltimateAimMethodCellsDescriptionProgressiveAcceptableAdequateInheritancePioneersTissuesDynamicsCharterBiochemistry Author:Frederick Gowland Hopkins
