逛到一個倡導環保、協助人們改變自己、改變生活讓世界更好的國外網站，看到一些很有意思的句子，摘錄記下來，偶爾回味想想，嗯，還真是富涵人生智慧的哲理啊。


“All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man’s life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.”
—Albert Einstein

愛因斯坦說，所有的宗教信仰、藝術、科學，都是同一棵樹的分枝，這些熱望都會促使人想要提升生命質感，而非只是軀體上的存在而已，它們也將引導每個個體更接近獨立與自由。

我覺得，這或許就是教育的本質吧
讓學生從各種生活、人文與科學領域裡，去發現去認識自我，進而更接近愛因斯坦所謂的freedom--真正的自由。

“Washing one’s hands of the conflict（袖手不管衝突）between the powerful and the powerless means to side with（支持） the powerful, not to be neutral”.
— Paulo Freire

這句話，很棒，簡直在說，在人群社會、政治選舉、或是國際社會等等環境，若我們面對不公不義或有爭議之事，卻還噤聲漠然，袖手旁觀，那不是公平中立啊，那是強勢者的幫兇。
