John Dewey Quotes

If The Eye Is Constantly Greeted By Harmonious Objects, Having Elegance Of Form And Color, A Standard Of Taste Naturally Grows Up. The Effect Of A Tawdry, Unarranged, And Over-decorated Environment Works For The Deterioration Of Taste, Just As Meager And Barren Surroundings Starve Out The Desire For Beauty. Against Such Odds, Conscious Teaching Can Hardly Do More Than Convey Second-hand Information As To What Others Think. Such Taste Never Becomes Spontaneous And Personally Engrained, But Remains A Labored Reminder Of What Those Think To Whom One Has Been Taught To Look Up.
