シュガードール

失敗を恐れるあまりに踏み出せず、いつまでたっても成功しない

The King Alfred School

is a delightful place. There is co-education ... a marvellous thing to an Englishman, but not noticeable by a Scot who has never known any other kind. There is no reward and no punishment, no marks, no competition. A child looks on each task as a work of art, and his one desire is to please himself rather than please his teacher. The tone of the school is excellent; the pupils are frankly critical and delightfully self-possessed. And since parents choose this school voluntarily I presume that the education we call home-life is ideal. How easy it must be for John Russell! If my Dickie had been going home each night to a father and mother who were as eager for truth and freedom as I was, I don't think that Dickie would have cut me to-night. Dickie came up for his milk to-night, and I hailed him as he went down the brae. "Here, Dickie!" I called, "why have you given up looking at me?" He grew very red, and he stood kicking a stone with his heel.
