Sobre os professores

"Há que conceder aos professores a maior das liberdades no que respeita aos conteúdos a ensinar, assim como aos métodos a utilizar. Pois é verdade que também para estes o prazer na execução do seu trabalho pode ser aniquilado pela força ou pela pressão exterior”.
Albert Einstein
