To Teach Is Part Of

Although The Teachers Or The Students Are Not The Same, The Person In Charge Of Education Is Being Formed Or Re-formed As He/she Teaches, And The Person Who Is Being Taught Forms Him/herself In The Process. ...there Is, In Fact, No Teaching Without Learning.

Attempting To Liberate The Oppressed Without Their Reflective Participation In The Act Of Liberation Is To Treat Them As Objects That Must Be Saved From A Burning Building.

How Can The Oppressed, As Divided, Unauthentic Beings, Participate In Developing The Pedagogy Of Their Liberation? Only As They Discover Themselves To Be 'hosts' Of The Oppressor Can They Contribute To The Midwifery Of Their Liberating Pedagogy. As Long As They Live In The Duality In Which To Be Is To Be Like And To Be Like Is To Be Like The Oppressor, This Contribution Is Impossible. The Pedagogy Of The Oppressed Is An Instrument For Their Critical Discovery That Both They And Their Oppressors Are Manifestations Of Dehumanization.

For People, 'here' Signifies Not Merely A Physical Space, But Also An Historical Space.

One Of My Major Preoccupations Is The Approximation Between What I Say And What I Do, Between What I Seem To Be And What I Am Actually Becoming.
