Tyson Yunkaporta
“If people are laughing, they are learning. True learning is a joy because it is an act of creation.”
Tyson Yunkaporta, Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Frances de Pontes Peebles
“Being part of an audience is like wading into a pool filled with strangers—you share the same waters, and when someone moves, even slightly, you feel the ripple. Without realizing, you also begin to move, and your movement sends its own signal. During any live performance there is always an exchange—not only from performer to the audience, but also within the audience itself.”
Frances de Pontes Peebles, The Air You Breathe

Martha C. Nussbaum
“The presence of the other, which can be very threatening, becomes, in play, a delightful source of curiosity, and this curiosity contributes toward the development of healthy attitudes in friendship, love, and, later, political life. Winnicott”
Martha C. Nussbaum, Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities

Paulo Freire
“Libertarian action must recognize this dependence as a weak point and must attempt through reflection and action to transform it into independence. However, not even the best-intentioned leadership can bestow independence as a gift. The liberation of the oppressed is a liberation of women and men, not things. Accordingly, while no one liberates himself by his own efforts alone, neither is he liberated by others. Liberation, a human phenomenon, cannot be achieved by semihumans. Any attempt to treat people as semihumans only dehumanizes them.”
Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed
