Learning Happens

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark;
the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. – Plato

“Look at how a single candle can both defy and define the darkness.”
― Anne Frank

“Learning can only happen when a child is interested. If he’s not interested, it’s like throwing marshmallows at his head and calling it eating.” ~ Katrina Gutleben
