"The teacher of children up to six years of age knows that she has helped mankind in an essential part of its formation. She may know nothing of the children’s circumstances, except what they have told her freely in conversation; possibly she takes no interest in their future: whether they will go on to secondary schools and the university, or end their studies sooner; but she is happy in the knowledge that in this formative period they were able to do what they had to do. She will be able to say: ‘I have served the spirits of those children, and they have fulfilled their development, and I kept them company in their experiences.”
Dr. Maria Montessori, ‘The Absorbent Mind’, p.259
