What is the point of being educated if you are just going to carry on like a machine? But that is what your parents want, and it is what the world wants. The world does not want you to think; it does not want you to be free to find out because then you would be a dangerous citizen; you would not fit into the established pattern. A free human being can never belong to a country, class or type of thinking. Freedom means freedom at every level, right through, and to think only along a particular line is not freedom. It is very important to be free, not only at the conscious level but also deep inside. This means you must be watchful of yourself, more and more aware of the influences which seek to control or dominate you; it means you must never thoughtlessly accept, but always question, investigate and be in revolt.
