(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!
“Women direct civilization by means of simple actions which mold the human being. They rule over intimacy, over birth and over love. The soul of a people is written on a woman’s face.”

“I applied myself to the study of philosophy and that interests me a lot. This study makes a lot of things clear and puts order in the mind. I do not understand why one would not make that the crowning point of all feminine education. What is often lacking in a woman is an upright judgment, the habit of reasoning, and a personal and prolonged effort of the mind. Philosophy can give all of that, stripping her of so many prejudges and narrow ideas which she transmits religiously to her sons, to the great detriment of our country.”
Elisabeth LESEUR (1866-1914)
