If the mind be curbed and humbled too much in children, if their spirits be abased and broken by too strict an hand over them, they lose all their vigour and industry... dejected minds, timorous and tame, and low spirits are hardly ever to be raised, and very seldom attain anything... he that has found a way how to keep up a child's spirit, easy, active, free and yet, at the same time, to restrain him from many things he has a mind to, and to drive him to things that are uneasy to him, he, I say, that knows how to reconcile these seeming contradictions has in my opinion, got the true secret of education.

John Locke (1632-1704)

We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason, all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason.

John Locke (2004-)
