Portrait of Haldane at work on education Book

"...there can be no real advancement in knowledge unless it first begin in leisure and wonder, where the controlling motive throughout remains to be delight and love." Not good grades or colleges, or prestige, or a well-paying job, but love.
So many connections to Charlotte Mason, especially her three tools of atmosphere, discipline, and life; and also to other books I've read like Pieper's Leisure the Basis of Culture (which he quotes) and Lewis' The Four Loves (Taylor discusses teaching and friendship). Now I'm thinking through how we are seeking poetic knowledge already in our homeschool, and how we can do that better.
