Ideas Freely Sown: New and Improved

A few years ago, I took a trip to South Carolina. I packed everything, including a spare pair of shoes, in a rolling suitcase. Because the weather was beautiful, and I didn’t step in anything messy, I wore my main pair of shoes and forgot about the second pair until I got home. Unfortunately, I had also followed somebody’s packing hint and stuffed my socks into the extra shoes, which were stas

How the Heather Looks by Joan Bodger
"This is the lovely story of the Bodger family's 1958 vacation in England which they spent finding and exploring the familiar places they knew from beloved children's books, as well as authors' and illustrators' homes, and some historical places.

New Collected Poems by Wendell Berry
"Beautifully written with some lines that i will remember forever, and really thoughtful reflections on the nature of life and death. It feels like a travesty to knock any stars off a Wendell Berry poetry collection, but my interest in farming poetry " Read more of this review »

Quotes by Anne E. White  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I don’t say that it is true: but only that it is likely to be true. In science we must be cautious and modest, and ready to alter our minds whenever we learn fresh facts; only keeping sure of one thing, that the truth, when we find it out, will be far more wonderful than any notions of ours.”
― Anne E. White, Further Afield: Kingsley's Lessons in Earth Lore, Volume 2

“So we read books just because they make us happy or because they’re fun, because they will make us sound smart, because they’ll get us into college or a good job ahead of the others? Or should we use them as a practical guide to recognizing dragons? No, they show us that we have a purpose; that we can be useful in the world, and that is our pleasure. Education gives us minds more awake, and a life that is more than just passing time.”
― Anne E. White, Minds More Awake: The Vision of Charlotte Mason

“Charlotte had her own Gifted and Talented program: Exercise, Nourishment, Change, and Rest. She said not to discourage a gifted child from doing what comes naturally; if he wants to play the violin or learn Latin at three, he’ll let you know. Let him do just so much as he takes to of his own accord; but never urge, never applaud, never show him off. (p. 77)”
― Anne E. White, Minds More Awake (Revised Edition): The Vision of Charlotte Mason

“I've begun to realize that you can listen to silence and learn from it. It has a quality and a dimension all its own.”
― Chaim Potok, The Chosen

“We do not list “humility” among our school subjects or put it on a transcript, but that is actually the little secret of classical education. The things that make it truly classical, truly worthwhile to pursue, aren’t school subjects at all, but principles that add depth and cohesion to everything we study in all areas of the curriculum. ❧ ❧ ❧”
― Karen Glass, Consider This: Charlotte Mason and the Classical Tradition

“By all means," cried the bard, his eyes lighting up. "A Fflam to the rescue! Storm the castle! Carry it by assault! Batter down the gates!"
"There's not much of it left to storm," said Eilonwy.
"Oh?" said Fflewddur, with disappointment. "Very well, we shall do the best we can.”
― Lloyd Alexander, The Book of Three

“I did not love cold harmony and perfect regularity of organization; what I sought was variety, mystery, tradition, the venerable, the awful. I despised sophisters and calculators; I was groping for faith, honor, and prescriptive loyalties. I would have given any number of neo-classical pediments for one poor battered gargoyle.”
― Russell Kirk

“Few pay attention to the histories and the root pictures words can release. These neglected qualities are there, however, and the poets have always found them a self-delighting source of excitement.”
― John Ciardi, How Does a Poem Mean?
