« "ALEXANDRE: -By trusting us, he invited us to discover our illusions, our inclinations, our weaknesses. Like you, he considered that everyone had in him the solutions that it was simply a matter of highlighting. Matthew did not profess an abstract theory, external to the subject, he awakened in us a knowledge, numbing abilities." SOCRATES: -This is a good definition of the educator. ALEXANDRE: Yes I think... The one who helps to give birth, who questions, the one who awakens the abilities buried by different obstacles. This approach requires absolute confidence in man, but also humility, humility that allows us to keep our distance, not to judge the other, to realize that the other will always remain an irreducible individual, who cannot be totally submissive, analyzed, understood." »
