CM book club read.

“Education is a life — everywhere we go, any time of day, and throughout our whole lives, living persons should be learning persons.”

“Our task as educators is to encourage children to blossom in virtue and character.”

“The books children read are building their moral imagination so that they will be able to empathize with people in all kinds of circumstances. Their books should have the flavor of heroism, victory, sacrifice, and redemption…they will begin to comprehend that they too have a part to play in the great story that is life.”

“The things that you value and make time for in your everyday life will teach your children what is important. You are helping them to order their loves and form their affections.”

“The person who chooses to do right because it is right, not for any artificial reason, has a noble and virtuous character- the very thing we hope to see established in the lives of our young people. Being able to rule yourself is the mark of a mature person.”
