"You are mistaken if you think we have to lower ourselves to communicate with children. On the contrary, we have to reach up to their feelings, stretch, stand on our tiptoes."

  Janusz Korczak 1925

"A hundred children, a hundred individuals who are people--not people-to-be, not people of tomorrow, but people now, right now--today."
