Excerpt from Education as Growth: Or the Culture of Character, A Book for Teachers' Reading Circles, Normal Classes, and Individual Teachers
Perhaps no sane person ever lived to be fifty years of age without wishing at least once that he could live his life over again, bringing back to his youth the experience of his maturity. Realizing that this is impossible for himself, he earnestly de sires that his children, and, if his sympathies are broad, other young people, shall become wise ere it is too late to profit by their wisdom. But in his anxiety for the young he frequently mistakes knowl edge for wisdom, and in his theory of education he is liable to leave out of account that growth or development of the soul which alone makes a person capable of using aright his treasures of acquired learning. This little book is devoted to a discussion of the best ways of attaining sound character through the process of acquiring an edu cation under the discipline of the school and other.
