Simple Charlotte Mason Homeschooling
“The question is not, ‘how much does the youth know?’ when he has finished his education, but, ‘how much does he care?’
And about how many orders of things does he care?
In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set?
And therefore, how full is the life he has before him?”
