School/discipline

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or discipline:

“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

“... the surest test of discipline is its absence.”
—Clara Barton (1821–1912)
