Summary

This quote highlights the significance of teaching as a sacred and transformative art. It draws a parallel between a druid, who spreads knowledge and wisdom through storytelling, and a teacher who possesses the power to liberate individuals intellectually and physically.

The act of sharing the truth through education, without being swayed by allegiances, has the potential to challenge and disrupt unjust power structures.
