shout at them to pay attention. If the situations, the
materials, the problems before the child do not interest
him, his attention will slip off to what does interest him,
and no amount of exhortation of threats will bring it back.

A man's
interest in the world is only an overflow from his interest
in himself.

common end and prefer the interest of mankind to any narrow
