Of Education
By Joseph Joubert (1754–1824)
Translation of Thomas Wentworth Higginson

HILDREN need models rather than critics.
Education should be tender and strict, and not cold and relaxing.

To teach is to learn twice over.
To have shared the mode of education common to all is a great advantage to gifted minds, because they are thus kept in touch with others.
