The things that have been most valuable to me I did not learn in school.
The school made it very clear that women were entitled to positions of authority. That sense of entitlement allowed us to feel that we have a natural place in leadership in the world. That gave me a mental and emotional confidence.
The atmosphere at my school was very competitive. Young girls were competing with each other every day for status for leadership for the affection of the teachers. I hated it.
What nourishes us at home and in school is what inspires us. When we get awareness and learn about the great potential that we all human beings have we are able to discover our leadership.
Military school was great and especially great for leadership and then I spent two years in Vietnam.
Capucci was the biggest schooling I had. It wasn't just about the technical knowledge such as color and volume but also about the secret rules and the beautiful codes of respect between the atelier and the master.
Education is a private matter between the person and the world of knowledge and experience and has little to do with school or college.
English girls' schools today providing the higher education are so far as my knowledge goes worthily representative of that astonishing rise in the intellectual standards of women which has taken place in the last half-century.
Thus in accordance with the spirit of the Historical School knowledge of the principles of the human world falls within that world itself and the human sciences form an independent system.
That was really so upsetting when you are trying to pass on some very serious knowledge and be basically treated worse than a student coming off the street because his father pays the tuition. Come on. Give me a break. This is no school. This is a joke.
