“The ability to see reality in form, in color, in proportion, to be master of the movements of one’s own hand – that is what is necessary.”

We recommend for the training of teachers not only a considerable artistic education in general but special attention to the art of reading.

Noble ideas, great sentiments have always existed and have always been transmitted, but wars have never ceased.

The only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood, when no one can teach them anything!

The child who concentrates is immensely happy.

The possibility of observing the developments of the psychical life of the child as natural phenomena and experimental reactions transforms the school itself in action into a kind of scientific laboratory for the psychogenetic study of man.

We are not created only to enjoy the world, we are created in order to evolve the cosmos.

The greatest development is achieved during the first years of life, and therefore it is then that the greatest care should be taken. If this is done, then the child does not become a burden; he will reveal himself as the greatest marvel of nature.

The child’s mind is not the type of mind we adults possess. If we call our type of mind the conscious type, that of the child is an unconscious mind. Now an unconscious mind does not mean an inferior mind.

Free the child’s potential, and you will transform him into the world.

Travel stories teach geography; insect stories lead the child into natural science; and so on.

There can be no ‘graduated exercises in drawing’ leading up to an artistic creation. That goal can be attained only through the development of mechanical technique and through the freedom of the spirit.

All work is noble; the only ignoble thing is to live without working.

Observation, very general and wide-spread, has shown that small children are endowed with a special psychic nature. This shows us a new way of imparting education!

My system is to be considered a system leading up, in a general way, to education. It can be followed not only in the education of little children from three to six years of age, but can be extended to children up to ten years of age.

The purpose of life is to obey the hidden command which ensures harmony among all and creates an ever better world.

With man, the life of the body depends on the life of the spirit.

All those lavenders seemed purple in love they turned lilac without him.

I like lip liners over lipsticks. I have so many of them from so many different brands, so I just pick the color that works.

Do what you’re happy with and not what you think whoever else is going to tell you about you ‘acting a color.’ You don’t act at all. You just do what you think is best.

Shades of black intertwined in my being I try to see in color but darkness is all I’m seeing.

If truth be known it is not all about rainbows sometimes eyes of melancholic skies still shine they still find light and color despite the sky.

What I need most of all is color, always, always.

How is it that the colors don’t seem colorful anymore? How is it that the child in me wants to live yet keeps dying more and more?

If anyone wants to abuse other people for whatever colour, race or creed they are, then it’s just stupidness, isn’t it?
