“Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war”-Montessori

“Everyone talks about peace, but no one educates for peace. People educate for competition and this is the beginning of any war. When we educate to cooperate and be in solidarity with one another that day we will be education for peace.” -Montessori
