Quotes by Friedrich Fröbel  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The end of education is not reason per se, but rather the happy, unified man who need not keep his instincts and impulses chained down, for they are functionally a part of the integrated man at peace with himself, his universe, and his God.”
Friedrich Froebel, The Education of Man

“Let us then secure for the children that which we lack ourselves. Let us transfuse from their lives into ours that vital creative energy of child's life which we have lost. Let us learn from our children.”
Friedrich Froebel
