(Ephesians 5:8)
Parents, leaders, and educators, we have a mission, a duty to lead children's souls toward the Light which will be their guide and their happiness. In order to illuminate the way that lies before each one of us, once a week we invite you to discover some of the words of certain wisemen and witnesses, measuring their worth by the words of St. Thomas Aquinas: “Do not consider the one who speaks, but whatever good you hear from him, confide it to your memory.” (from The Sixteen Ways to Acquire the Treasure of Knowledge by St. Thomas). Happy reading!
“I loved to work.
I loved to work well.
I loved to work quickly.
I loved to work a great deal.”
Charles PÉGUY (1873-1914)
Writer and poet
“When you were young, the beginning of every school year seemed like the beginning of a new turn in life. But afterwards, suddenly and insidiously, you realize that you have not been at the beginning for quite a while: a great deal of time has already passed you by.”
“Do not waste your time, then; you will not be able to repeat a single day of your life. And do not seek to justify yourself by external circumstances. That is not what fashions your destiny; it is your own character that forms you. It seems to me that this is true for all ages in time and throughout the world.”, Address to the students of the new college of Alexander Solzhenitsyn d’Aizenay
