In the history of education, the most amazing phenomenon is that a school that was once full of talented people and full of vitality has later become a pedantic and conservative concentration camp.

Culture is an ideological activity, and it is a feeling of beautiful things and human emotions.

Fragmented information has nothing to do with culture.

We should devote ourselves to cultivating people with both cultural accomplishment and professional knowledge.

We must keep in mind that the most valuable intellectual development is self-development, which mostly occurs between 16-30 years old.

People's performance at the age of 18 is not important, but their personal development after 18 is important. -Temple

The worst is corroded by the best. -Latin motto

We advocate two educational "commandments": first, don't teach too many subjects; Second, if you don't teach, you must teach thoroughly.

The main knowledge introduced into education should be few and precise, and related to each other as much as possible.
