Just because you don't know where it comes from doesnt mean it isn't connected

Just because you want it to be what I meant doesn't mean I care that it's what you're rambling about.

I looked it up, it appears in a lot of places though its origin is unknown. So you picked it up from somewhere. Definitely not your fault for mangling what is obviously a distorted Friere quote, though it remains mangled and now a part of public consciousness. I still have the same reservations about it and I wish you would consider reading Pedagogy of the Oppressed rather than dismiss what I'm saying and probably keep repeating this. But you're right, it was a waste of time.
