"It is of utmost importance that we recognize and nurture all of the varied human intelligences, and all the combinations of intelligences. ... If we recognize this, I think we will have at least a better chance of dealing appropriately with the many problems that we face in the world."
- Howard Gardner, 1987 (Armstrong, 2000) |
