My only purpose is to teach children to rebel against authority figures.
- Sherman Alexie
I would teach children music, physics, and philosophy; but most importantly music, for the patterns in music and all the arts are the keys to learning
- Plato
People aim for the stars, and they end up kike a goldfish in a bowl. I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler just to teach children right from the start that life is absurd
- Muriel Barbery
You can't teach children to be good. The best you can do for your child is to live a good life yourself. What a parent knows and believes, the child will lean on.
- Bruno Bettelheim
I think the big mistake in schools is trying to teach children anything, and by using fear as the basic motivation. Fear of getting failing grades, fear of not staying with your class, etc. Interest can produce learning on a scale compared to fear as a nuclear explosion to a firecracker.
- Stanley Kubrick
When you want to teach children to think, you begin by treating them seriously when they are little, giving them responsibilities, talking to them candidly, providing privacy and solitude for them, and making them readers and thinkers of significant thoughts from the beginning. That's if you want to teach them to think.
- Bertrand Russell
I like stories about supervillains. They teach children that you can accomplish great things even when the whole world is against you.
- John G D Clark
It seems to me of great importance to teach children respect for life. Towards this end, experiments on living animals in classrooms should be stopped. To encourage cruelty in the name of science can only destroy the finer emotions of affection and sympathy, and breed an unfeeling callousness in the young towards suffering in all living creatures.
- Eleanor Roosevelt
I looked around the store and what I saw was not very encouraging. There were rows and rows of violent toys...aisle after aisle of training devices for recreational slaughter. No wonder our world was such a mean and violent place...if we teach children that killing is fun, can we really be surprised if now and then someone is smart enough to learn?
- Jeff Lindsay
It is not enough to simply teach children to read;
we have to give them something worth reading.
Something that will stretch their imaginations-
something that will help them make sense of their own lives
and encourage them to reach out toward people
whose lives are quite different from their own.
- Katherine Paterson
We should not teach children the sciences; but give them a taste for them.
- Jeanjacques Rousseau
Parents teach children discipline for two different, indeed diametrically opposed, reasons: to render the child submissive to them and to make him independent of them. Only a self-disciplined person can be obedient; and only such a person can be autonomous.
