(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!
Yes, I’ve a fatherland: it is called the French language.

“One day my teacher held out a book to me. I never forgot this beautiful book – the first to speak to me of the things I knew: of a mother, of poverty, of beautiful nights under the stars… I read it in one night, and upon waking, enriched by a new liberty, I stepped forward, though unsure, into an unknown world. I discovered suddenly that books weren’t just ministers of oblivion and distraction. My stubborn silences, all this indistinct and crushing suffering, this peculiar world, and the nobility of those I loved, as well as their misery, and even secrets: all this could be said, could be expressed.”
