The more people participate in the process of their own education, and the more people participate in defining what kind of production to produce, and for what and why, the more people participate in the development of their selves. The more people become themselves, the better the democracy.
Paulo FreireIt is in our incompleteness, of which we are aware, that education as a permanent process is grounded. Women and men are capable of being educated only to the extent that they are capable of recognizing themselves as unfinished.
Paulo FreireNo one is born fully-formed: it is through self-experience in the world that we become what we are.
Paulo FreireWashing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral.
