Educators must resist the quest for certainty. If there were certainty there would be no scientific advancement. So it is with morals and patriotism.

Enlightened social engineering is required to face situations that demand global action now.

Education is a task for both parents and state. The state, parents, and children all have interests that must be protected.

Parents do not own their children. They have no ‘natural right’ to control their education fully.

It is my expectation that Teacher Education for Democracy and Social Justice will become a rich resource for continuing this multi-layered conversation-from democratic belief to democratic action-that is the hallmark of educational renewal.

A teacher's failure to create an intellectually reflective, engagement for learning is not simply malpractice but it is immoral particularly for students who cannot withdraw.

The first educational question will not be 'what knowledge is of the most worth?' but 'what kinds of human beings do we wish to produce?' The possibilities virtually defy our imagination.
