I will tell you in my way how the Indian sees things. The white man has more words to tell you how they look to him, but it does not require many words to speak the truth. If the white man wants to live in peace with the Indian... we can live in peace. There need be no trouble. Treat all men alike.... give them all the same law. Give them all an even chance to live and grow. You might as well expect the rivers to run backward as that any man who is born a free man should be contented when penned up and denied liberty to go where he pleases. We only ask an even chance to live as other men live. We ask to be recognized as men. Let me be a free man...free to travel... free to stop...free to work...free to choose my own teachers...free to follow the religion of my Fathers...free to think and talk and act for myself.~ Chief Joseph Professionalism implies knowledge based in evidence, not in authority. Such lines are blurred in the era of identity politics and the normalization of pseudo-disciplines such as Gender Studies, Black Studies, Queer Studies, Fat Studies, Disability Studies, Chicano Studies and White Studies and Indigenous Studies, all of which are taught based on the “authority” of Marxism, and all of whose primary purpose is to demonize “oppressors” – the “patriarchy,” white “colonialists” and the U.S. in general – and to recruit activists for organized perpetuation of the identity grievance industry.~ Barbara Kay College isn't the place to go for ideas.~ Helen Keller The highest result of education is tolerance.~ Helen Keller Liberty without learning is always in peril and learning without liberty is always in vain.~ John F. Kennedy I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute -- where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishoners for whom to vote -- where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference -- and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.~ John F. Kennedy Let us think of education as the means of developing our greatest abilities, because in each of us there is a private hope and dream which, fulfilled, can be translated into benefit for everyone and greater strength for our nation.~ John F. Kennedy Education is unique among consumer products -- when it fails to work as advertised, it's the customer that gets labelled as defective.~ Kevin Killion It is precisely because education is the road to equality and citizenship, that it has been made more elusive for Negroes than many other rights. The walling off of Negroes from equal education is part of the historical design to submerge him in second class status. Therefore, as Negroes have struggled to be free they have had to fight for the opportunity for a decent education.~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The group consisting of mother, father and child is the main educational agency of mankind.~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The Negro has no room to make any substantial compromises because his store of advantages is too small. He must press unrelentingly for quality, integrated education or his whole drive for freedom will be undermined by the absence of a most vital and indispensable element -- learning.~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Knowledge is more a matter of learning than of the exercise of absolute judgment. Learning requires time, and in time the situation dealt with, as well as the learner, undergoes change.~ Frank H. Knight It seems now that the place where you see the most obvious censorship is on college campuses --- the precise place where you would expect to see the least.~ Alan Charles Kors The first goal and primary function of the U.S. public school is not to educate good people, but good citizens. It is the function which we call - in enemy nations - 'state indoctrination.'~ Jonathan Kozol The road to hell is paved with good intentions.~ Late 16th Century Proverb History is written by the victor.~ Latin Proverb A teacher is never a giver of truth -- he is a guide, a pointer to the truth that each student must find for himself. A good teacher is merely a catalyst.~ Bruce Lee [M]y work, which I've done for a long time, was not pursued in order to gain the praise I now enjoy, but chiefly from a craving after knowledge, which I notice resides in me more than in most other men. And therewithal, whenever I found out anything remarkable, I have thought it my duty to put down my discovery on paper, so that all ingenious people might be informed thereof.~ Antonie van Leeuwenhoek Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.~ Vladimir Ilyich Lenin Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.~ Vladimir Ilyich Lenin Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
