John Holt Quotes

We Destroy The Love Of Learning In Children, Which Is So Strong When They Are Small, By Encouraging And Compelling Them To Work For Petty And Contemptible Rewards, Gold Stars, Or Papers Marked 100 And Tacked To The Wall, Or A's On Report Cards, Or Honor Rolls, Or Dean's Lists, Or Phi Beta Kappa Keys, In Short, For The Ignoble Satisfaction Of Feeling That They Are Better Than Someone Else.
