Mason Carter
Think about it—what does school really teach? Memorization. Who was born when, when they died, what happened when, who is who, what is what. That’s enough to pass exams, get a degree, and land a job. But does it teach you to think?
Mason Carter, A Philosophy of Scars: A Story of Broken Hearts and Overthinking Minds

Ivan Illich
our pedagogical hubris: that is, “our belief that man can do what God cannot, namely, manipulate others for their own salvation.
Ivan Illich
