“It is as his own mind comes into contact with others that truth will begin to acquire value in the child's eyes and will consequently become a moral demand that can be made upon him. As long as the child remains egocentric, truth as such will fail to interest him and he will see no harm in transposing facts in accordance with his desires.” MindChildrenLongMadeFactsEyeDesireValuesInterestMoralFailingDemandRemainsHarmContactAcquireEgocentric Book:The Moral Judgement of the Child Source: The Moral Judgement of the Child
“But to demand that a work be “relatable” expresses a different expectation: that the work itself be somehow accommodating to, or reflective of, the experience of the reader or viewer. The reader or viewer remains passive in the face of the book or movie or play: she expects the work to be done for her. If the concept of identification suggested that an individual experiences a work as a mirror in which he might recognize himself, the notion of relatability implies that the work in question serves like a selfie: a flattering confirmation of an individual's solipsism.” IfsBookDifferentDonePlayMightFacesIndividualReaderDemandExpectationsConceptsMirrorsRemainsNotionPassiveViewersRelatableFlatteringIdentificationConfirmationWork To Be DoneSolipsismRelatability Author:Rebecca Mead
“The classroom, with all its limitations, remains a location of possibility. In that field of possibility we have the opportunity to labor for freedom, to demand of ourselves and our comrades, an openness of mind and heart that allows us to face reality even as we collectively imagine ways to move beyond boundaries, to transgress. This is education as the practice of freedom.” WayMindHeartRealityFacesMovingOpportunityFreedomEducationPracticeImagineFieldsPossibilityDemandLaborRemainsBoundariesLimitationOpennessClassroomLocationHeart And MindComrade Author:Bell Hooks
“The fruits of charity are joy, peace, and mercy; charity demands beneficence and fraternal correction; it is benevolence; it fosters reciprocity and remains disinterested and generous; it is friendship and communion: Love is itself the fulfillment of all our works.

“We would like to see science and higher education developing here [on the Russian Far East], so that it could become one of the major research centres in the entire APR system.

“The 1911 pistol remains the service pistol of choice in the eyes of those who understand the problem. Back when we audited the FBI academy in 1947, I was told that I ought not to use my pistol in their training program because it was not fair.

“The coast is an edgy place. Living on the coast presents certain stark realities and a wild, rare beauty. Continent confronts ocean. Weather intensifies. It's a place of tide and tantrum; of flirtations among fresh- and saltwaters, forests and shores; of tense negotiations with an ocean that gives much but demands more. Every year the raw rim that is this coast gets hammered and reshaped like molten bronze. This place roils with power and a sometimes terrible beauty. The coast remains youthful, daring, uncertain about tomorrow. The guessing, the risk; in a way, we're all thrill seekers here.” WayGivingYearsSometimesRealityCertainRiskTomorrowTerribleDemandOceanRemainsForestsWeatherShoreDaringTidesContinentsUncertainThrillCoastNegotiationSeekersTenseLiving OnStarksGuessingEdgyBronzeRimsFlirtationHammeredTantrumsStark RealityThrill SeekersRare Beauty Author:Carl Safina
