Por lo que respecta a la educación de los hijos, creo que no hay que enseñarles las pequeñas virtudes, sino en las grandes. No el ahorro, sino la generosidad y la indiferencia hacia el dinero; no la prudencia, sino el coraje y el desprecio por el peligro; no la astucia, sino la franqueza y el amor por la verdad; no la diplomacia, sino el amor al prójimo y la admiración; no el deseo del éxito, sino deseo de ser y de saber.

Per quanto riguarda l'educazione dei figli, penso che si debbano insegnar loro non le piccole virtù, ma le grandi. Non il risparmio, ma la generosità e l'indifferenza al denaro; non la prudenza, ma il coraggio e lo sprezzo del pericolo; non l'astuzia, ma la schiettezza e l'amore alla verità; non la diplomazia, ma l'amore al prossimo e l'abnegazione; non il desiderio del successo, ma il desiderio di essere e di sapere.
