A revolutionary leadership must accordingly practice co-intentional education.

As one might expect, authoritarianism will at times cause children and students to adopt rebellious positions, defiant of any limit, discipline, or authority. But it will also lead to apathy, excessive obedience, uncritical conformity, lack of resistance against authoritarian discourse, self-abnegation, and fear of freedom.

Through dialogue, the teacher-of-the-students and the students-of-the-teacher cease to exist and a new term emerges: teacher-student with students-teachers.

Without a minimum of hope, we cannot so much as start the struggle.

I am dealing with people and not with things. And, because I am dealing with people, I cannot refuse my wholehearted and loving attention, even in personal matters, where I see that a student is in need of such attention.

It doesnt hurt to repeat here the statement, still rejected by many people in spite of its obviousness, that education is a political act.

One cannot conceive of objectivity without subjectivity.
