Today is the birthday of the following people:
Jimmy Fallon (1974 - ):
“There's always going to be someone out there... who doesn't believe in you or who thinks your head is too big or you're not smart enough. But those are the people you need to ignore, and those are the times you need to just keep doing what you love doing.”
William Golding (1911 – 1993):
“Maybe there is a beast… maybe
it's only us.”
and
“My yesterdays walk with me.
They keep step, they are gray faces that peer over my shoulder.”
and
“We did everything adults would
do. What went wrong?”
Frances Farmer (1913 – 1970):
“If a person is treated like a
patient, they are apt to act like one.”
Roger Angell (1920 - ):
“My favorite urban flower, the
baseball box score”
Paolo Freire (1921 - 1997):
“Education either functions as
an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation
into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes
the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and
creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation
of their world.”
and
“Washing one's hands of the
conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the
powerful, not to be neutral.”
and
“If the structure does not
permit dialogue the structure must be changed.”
and
“No one is born fully-formed:
it is through self-experience in the world that we become what we are.”
