(see also Delight, Desires) “Nature will look after (the child) and give him promptings of desire to know many things….” * “The Christian religion is, in its very nature, objective. It offers for our worship, reverence, service, adoration and delight, a Divine Person, the Desire of the world. Simplicity, happiness, and expansion come from the outpouring of a human heart upon that which is altogether worthy.” * “That normal children have a natural desire for, and a right of admission to, all fitting knowledge, appears to me to be suggested by the phrase, 'Education is the science of relations.'” * “This appetite or desire for knowledge is a sufficient stimulus for all schoolwork, if the knowledge be fitly given.” * “Desire will do its devoir (work) in collecting sustenance for the mind.” * “We must learn what we desire to know.” * “Desire of Nations is His name!” * “All men by nature desire to know.” ~ Aristotle Examen: Am I aware of my own desires and their connection to my growth?
