Love?
“Being socially connected is a need with a capital N . . . . Love and belonging might seem like a convenience we can live without, but our biology is built to thirst for connection because it is linked to our most basic survival needs.”
Si nada queda de estas páginas, esperamos que por lo menos algo permanezca: nuestra confianza en el pueblo. Nuestra fe in los hombres y in la creación de un mundo en el que sea menos dificil amar.
If nothing of these pages remains, we hope that at least one thing will remain: our trust in the people. Our faith in men and women and the creation of a world in which it will be less difficult to love.
We find that what James referred to as ‘‘a certain blindness in human beings’’ and what Marion cites as ‘‘the silence of love’’ are chronic conditions in education, philosophy, and beyond. When love fails, beauty seems sparse, wonder becomes elusive, and wisdom is scarce. What’s left is information, and that’s the problem.

[P]ointing is the fundamental operation of education. . . pointing is ultimately about calling someone—or even more precisely some one—to attend to the world, which means that it also calls for attention to one’s own attention, so to speak
.– Gert Biesta, World-Centred Education
“[T]he most precious gift in an educator is a . . . loving attention to the child’s mysterious identity, which is a hidden thing that no techniques can reach.”
-Jacques Maritain On the Education of Man
Nel Noddings, one of the architects of feminist care ethics proposes three loves in education: (the discipline, learning, students).
