Here is a famous Noam Chomsky quotes collection
1. The whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter,
which just weeds out people who are too independent, and who think for themselves,
and who don’t know how to be submissive, and so on, because they’re dysfunctional to the institutions. ― Noam Chomsky
2. Changes and progress very rarely are gifts from above. They come out of struggles from below. ― Noam Chomsky

but allow very lively debate within that spectrum…. ― Noam Chomsky

Well, there’s really an easy way: Stop participating in it. ― Noam Chomsky

there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless,

11. I think it only makes sense to seek out and identify structures of authority, hierarchy, and domination in every aspect of life,
and to challenge them; unless a justification for them can be given,
they are illegitimate, and should be dismantled,
to increase the scope of human freedom. ― Noam Chomsky

Even the interpretation and use of words involves a process of free creation. ― Noam Chomsky
