Awareness


A child who gathers in the smallest details must look upon us with a certain degree of contempt since he is unaware of the mental syntheses which we are constantly making . He must as a consequence look upon us as being somewhat inefficient, as individuals who do not see well. From a child's viewpoint we are not very exact.

Maria Montessori, The Secret of Childhood, p 69
