Our Lives Are What We Make of Them

By John C. Corlette

John C. Corlette was born John Hubert Christian Corlette on 21 June 1911 and died 9 December 1977. He was an English architect who, in 1949, founded the private English-style boarding school Aiglon College in Switzerland. His legacy is the school that he founded.From his speech in 1973:"We believe that the goal of education is, or should be, the development of the spiritual man, that is of that part of each one of us which, with development and training, is capable of a vision or direct apprehension of the purpose of life, of the true nature of ourselves, of the world in which we live and of such other worlds or states of being as may exist besides. If we are able to achieve such illumination, the business of everyday life and its problems will be taken care of as a by-product, and such physical wealth as we may need for our passage through this life will follow the spiritual wealth which we have worked to achieve."Net proceeds from the sale of this publication will be donated to the John Corlette Scholarship Fund... so far $50 has been donated.
