“An education capable of saving humanity is no small undertaking: it involves the spiritual development of man, the enhancement of his value as an individual, and the preparation of young people to understand the times in which they live.” —Education and Peace

We see the figure of the child who stands before us with his arms held open, beckoning humanity to follow. DR. MARIA MONTESSORI, EDUCATION AND PEACE

“A room in which all the children move about usefully, intelligently, and voluntarily, without committing any rough or rude act, would seem to me a classroom very well disciplined indeed.” —The Montessori Method

“She [the Montessori teacher] must acquire a moral alertness which has not hitherto been demanded by any other system, and this is revealed in her tranquility, patience, charity, and humility. Not words, but virtues, are her main qualifications.” —The Discovery of the Child

“The teacher has two tasks: to lead the children to concentration and to help them in their development afterwards.” —The Child, Society and the World (Unpublished Speeches and Writing)
