About This Quote
All writers should be put in a box and thrown in the sea. All journalists should be put in a box and thrown in the sea. And all educators should be put in a box and thrown in the sea. Sometimes we hear people say, “They want to put us all in a box and throw us in the sea.” That’s not what we want! We don’t like being boxed up.
We like to be free thinkers, and we like to think for ourselves. We like to go our own way, and we don’t want anybody telling us what to do. We believe that everyone should have freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom of choice, and freedom from judgment.
