I hope at least that the following will endure: my trust in the people, and my faith in men and women, and in the creation of a world in which it will be easier to love

Problem-posing education affirms men and women as beings in the process of becoming.

Education is suffering from narration sickness.

The behavior of the oppressed is a prescribed behavior, following as it does the guidelines of the oppressor.

To glorify democracy and to silence the people is a farce; to discourse on humanism and to negate people is a lie.

The role of the educator is one of tranquil possession of certitude in regard to the teaching of not only contents but also of 'correct thinking.'

In order for the oppressed to be able to wage the struggle for their liberation, they must perceive the reality of oppression not as a closed world from which there is no exit , but as a limiting situation which they can transform.
