| "Supposing I said there
was a planet without schools or teachers, where study was unknown, and
yet the inhabitants -- doing nothing but live and walk about -- came to
know all things, to carry in their minds the whole of learning; would
you not think I was romancing? Well, just this, which seems so fanciful
as to be nothing but the invention of a fertile imagination, is a
reality. It is the child's way of learning."
- The Absorbent Mind
