Stuart Quotes (Background Information)
J.E. Stuart Quote 1: What does this mean?
“There are two ways of preparing children for the government of themselves in after-life, one direct and the other indirect. The first has its merits, it is quick in results, often very successful. It fosters piety, inculcates some clear principles, dictates the main lines of action, and by rule and maxim, fits the being into its place in the world, and gives it means to do its duty creditably. The indirect method is longer and less clearly defined. It aims at giving a guiding light within, and power to climb a difficult path, and pick a way through unknown country by that light. This must be waited for, and slowly developed, but in the end it is of greater worth. The training of the Sacred Heart aims at this.”
- (2017) Stuart's quote gives two different possibilities for finding oneself. The first possibility is a clear-cut path that for the most part results in success, but lacks freedom. On the other hand, the second possibility doesn't provide a calculated method. Rather, it's nebulous and allows for freedom and growth, which Stuart believes to be more worthwhile.
- (2017) Sacred Heart educators commit themselves to educating students not only through sheer discipline and the transfer of knowledge, but also through an example filled with ambition. Yes, teachers set an example for their students. While not all students may wish to teach in schools, all students should be able to teach other people as that is the only way that humanity advances forward. Sacred Heart educators like Stuart understood that it's important that through a guiding practice of teaching, teachers will enable students to become the best they can be. This methods allows students to develop their individual talents and make original findings, separate from the knowledge exemplified by the first method of teaching with textbook learning.
- (2016) I think Janet Erskine Stuart was trying to convey that a Sacred Heart education doesn't exactly give you a straight answer, but rather helps develop your thought process to help us make tough decisions. As well as this it will help us go through the unknown that is life after High School and College where those skills will be necessary.
- (2016) Perhaps what Janet Erskine Stuart meant by writing this quote is that a sacred heart [sic] education should strive to teach students a growth mindset that they can apply to all situations in their lives, as opposed to teaching students how to be good cogs in the system. Ultimately the sacred heart [sic] aims to provide both educational systems.
“We bring up our children for the future not for the present, not that we may enjoy the fruit of our work but for others, for God, for the Church, for their parents, for their home life. Therefore we have to do with things raw and unfinished, and unpolished. The children will come to us untaught and leave us half-taught. We sketch a plan but never see the crowning of the edifice. So we must remember that it is better to begin a great work than to finish a small one . . . So in every order great beginnings are better than little endings. We can only see the work in the rough, it may look ugly and yet be full of promise. A piece of finished insignificance is no success. We sometimes meet children of this type, who have a very small ideal, a very narrow horizon, but they never really take our stamp, or are true children of the Sacred Heart. Our Education is not meant to turn them out small and finished, but seriously begun on a wide basis. Wise parents see this and appreciate it. We are satisfied if our children leave us with some self-knowledge, some energy, some purpose.”

- right behavior or treatment.
- Encourages communal benefit within a society.
- Bringing peace and equality to an area/community.
