What will become of your pupils if you let them acquire this foolish prejudice, if you share it yourself? If, for instance, they see you show more politeness in a jeweller's shop than in a locksmith's. What idea will they form of the true worth of the arts and the real value of things when they see, on the one hand, a fancy price and, on the other, the price of real utility, and that the more a thing costs the less it is worth? As soon as you let them get hold of these ideas, you may give up all attempt at further education; in spite of you they will be like all the other scholars—you have wasted fourteen years. 去书内

    The book Emile has inspired me a lot. Emile did not know much, but what he knew was really his own, and none of it was half-understood. Being able to understand and master what you are learning is the most important thing. Otherwise, what's the use of learning more? We should learn to cultivate students' curiosity, interest and thirst for knowledge, so as to teach students according to their aptitude.
