Jerome Bruner Quotes:
Ocupation: Psychologist
Life: b. October 1, 1915
Birthday: October 1
It is sentimentalism to assume that the teaching of life can always be fitted to the child's interests, just as it is empty formalism to force the child to parrot the formulas of adult society. Interests can be created and stimulated.
