Dana Goldstein Quotes
Definitely we see throughout history that American teachers are asked to be very self-abnegating. They're not supposed to be concerned with the conditions of their labor, they're not supposed to care about pay.

Almost to the exclusion of a more pragmatic view of what the job actually entails.
