“The sport in Scouting is to find the good in every boy and develop it.”
Sir Robert Baden-Powell
“A Scout is never taken by surprise; he knows exactly what to do when anything unexpected happens.”
“Be Prepared... the meaning of the motto is that a scout must prepare himself by previous thinking out and practicing how to act on any accident or emergency so that he is never taken by surprise.”
“In Scouting, a boy is encouraged to educate himself instead of being instructed.”
“The most important object in Boy Scout training is to educate, not instruct.”
“See things from the boy's point of view.”
“When you want a thing done, 'Don't do it yourself' is a good motto for Scoutmasters.”
