If it's really education you want for Nathan, ' Buell said, 'have him read the papers, so he'll know what's going on in the world, and why. Teach him to be interested in everything he doesn't understand - interested enough to find out about it from books or people that aren't afraid to tell the truth. Kenneth Roberts
About This Quote

The quote, "If it's really education you want for Nathan," by Will Buell, was written in the late 1920s. It spoke about how children should be exposed to everything they do not know or understand so that they can learn for themselves. Educate the child without making him feel dumb and ignorant about the world.
