"The training for the new democracy must be from the cradle -
through nursery, school and play, and on and on through every activity of our life.
"Citizenship is not to be learned in good government classes or current events courses or lessons in civics.
It is to be acquired only through those modes of living and acting which shall teach us how to grow the social consciousness.
This should be the object of all day school education, of all night school education, of all our supervised recreation,
of all our family life, of our club life, of our civic life."
(Mary Parker Follett 1918: 363)
