“I'd rather die deceived by dreams than give
My heart to home and trade and never live.”
Farīd al-Dīn ʻAṭṭār, The Conference of the Birds

Paulo Freire
“Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral. ”
Paulo Freire

Hannah Arendt
“Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it.”
Hannah Arendt

Thomas Nashe
“What is Logicke but the highe waie to wrangling, contayning in it a world of bibble babble. Need we anie of your Greek, Latine, Hebrue, or anie such gibbrage, when we have the word of God in English?”
Thomas Nashe, An Almond for a Parrot: Being a Reply to Martin Mar-Prelate

Paulo Freire
“One of the basic questions that we need to look at is how to convert merely rebellious attitudes into revolutionary ones in the process of the radical transformation of society. Merely rebellious attitudes or actions are insufficient, though they are an indispensable response to legitimate anger. It is necessary to go beyond rebellious attitudes to a more radically critical and revolutionary position, which is in fact a position not simply of denouncing injustice but of announcing a new utopia. Transformation of the world implies a dialectic between the two actions: denouncing the process of dehumanization and announcing the dream of a new society. On the basis of this knowledge, namely, “to change things is difficult but possible,” we can plan our political-pedagogical strategy.”
Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of Freedom: Ethics, Democracy, and Civic Courage
