Pestalozzi

Pestalozzi was sixty years old at this time, and his hopes for the "new method" were still high.

Pestalozzi married at twenty-three a woman older than himself, on whom he thereafter relied in all his troubles.

Pestalozzi believed in teaching out of doors, because children are both barbaric and nomadic—they want to go somewhere.

But the greatest lesson that Pestalozzi taught is embodied in the word love.
