"There are several sovereignties in this country. First the sovereignty of the American people; then the sovereignty nearest to us all-the sovereignty of the family-the absolute right of each family to control its affairs in accordance with the conscience and convictions of duty of the heads of the familiy. I have no doubt that American people will always tenderly regard their household sovereignty, and however households may differ in their views and convictions, I believe that those differences will be respected." ~ James A. Garfield, 20th President of the USA
"I am much afraid that schools will prove the great gates of hell unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures, engraving them in the hearts of youth. I advise no one to place his child where the Scriptures do not reign paramount. Evey institution in which men are not increasingly occupied with the Word of God must become corrupt." - Martin Luther (1483 - 1546)
"Susanna Wesley taught her children at home, for twenty years carrying on this instruction daily, 'no so much,' she said, 'to train their minds as to save their souls'". - Ella Frances Lynch, Educating the Child at Home, 1914
"Home education is not something you casually fit into your calendar or make room for in your schedule. It is a committment you make to God and to your family that will require perserverence, energy, and patience." - Clay Clarkson, Educating the WholeHearted Child, 2011
"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Philippians 4:13, KJV
"You cannot buy a homeschooling kit that will make you instantly and easily successful. It is a long-term learning process, both for you and for your children." - Clay Clarkson, Educating the WholeHearted Child, 2011
