“The true wisdom is to be ready to learn from whatever source the knowledge can come.”

“We can learn things from a flower, an animal, a child, if we are eager to know always more, because there is only One Teacher in the world—the Supreme Lord, and He manifests through everything.”

~ The Mother, CWM, Vol. 12, p. 129

 

“There is a great power in the simple confidence of a child.” (p. 124)

 

“Just as flowers open out in the sun, children open out in joy. Obviously joy does not mean weakness, disorder and confusion,—but a luminous kindliness that encourages what is good and does not severely emphasise what is bad.” (p. 192)

 

“Childhood is the symbol of the future and the Hope of all the victories to come.” (p. 151)

 

“To be young is to live in the future. To be young is to be always ready to give up what we are in order to become what we must be. To be young is never to accept the irreparable.” (p. 122)
