Famous quotes containing the words jerome s, jerome and/or bruner:

    It is sentimentalism to assume that the teaching of life can always be fitted to the child’s interests, just as it is empty formalism to force the child to parrot the formulas of adult society. Interests can be created and stimulated.

    If you desire to drain to the dregs the fullest cup of scorn and hatred that a fellow human being can pour out for you, let a young mother hear you call dear baby “it.”
    Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)

    One seeks to equip the child with deeper, more gripping, and subtler ways of knowing the world and himself.
    —Jerome S. Bruner (20th century)
