1. Creative Quotations from Maria Montessori ( ) born on Aug 31 Italian educator, reformer; She originated the Montessori method of education stressing development of initiative and freedom of the child.

2. This then is the first duty of an educator:
to stir up life but leave it free to develop.

3. The task of the educator lies in seeing that the child does not confound good with immobility and evil
with activity.

4. Education is not something which the teacher does, but… is a natural process which develops spontaneously
in the human being.

5. The best instruction is that which uses the least words sufficient for the task.

6. The greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, ‘The children are now working as if I did not exist.’
