Happy 95th Birthday, Professor Chomsky! Your words have long inspired the world, and I am greatly honoured to be one of them! Your messages convey philosophy, and this, I have found to be the essence of education, especially in regard to teaching and learning, whatever the field/discipline. We greatly look forward to receiving your words of wisdom in the STAR 2024 Conference!

I was 18 when I read the spanish version of "Secrets, Lies and Democracy." The book helped me to be more aware of the social mechanisms and the deadly interventions implemented by the United States in the name of democracy and false progress for Latin American countries. Thank you Dr. Chomsky for your intellectual legacy and for helping us to remember that we have a voice and we can address the systemic structures that have been built to oppress and take advantage of our communities. The power of the collective is a pathway for liberation! Le deseo un maravilloso cumpleaños! Por mas liberación y empoderamiento en el Sur Global.

Your publications and authorships changed how I viewed the world, its surrounds, my interactions with students and other colleagues. Congratulations!!!

A great linguist, philoshopher, critical thinker. I have studied his theories from syntactic structure to minimalism of minimalism, read his articles, listened to his speech. All these highly impressed me.

As an English as a second language learner and teacher, your work is meaningful to empower language studies and to open the horizon in the individual's intercultural world. Thanks for your contribution. Happy birthday, Prof. Chomsky!

I have met Dr. Chomsky as most academics meet each other: by reading his works. Thank you for opening up new ways of thinking and inviting the pluralization of research voices.

I was honoured by being a recipient of the Noam Chomsky award 2022 for transnational research that works toward bettering the lives of others. Thank you to Noam Chomsky for his long-standing inspirational work which provides a guiding light for others working for social justice. Happy, happy birthday and thank you!!!

Thanks again and enjoy your day!!

I am a fan of Prof. Chomsky's incisive analyses of political landscapes, media dynamics, and societal issues. Today, on the occasion of his 95th birthday, I extend heartfelt felicitations, accompanied by wishes for his enduring health and prosperity.

Dr Chomsky, It has been said that Excellence is a journey not a destination. By all standards you are a model for all of us to follow. You have led the charge, taken the blows for cutting a path and not following a trail. You have dared to raise your voice and by doing so set in motion the call to all of to make a difference where we stand. You have challenged us to ask “What is my purpose?" Thank you for being a leader, a beacon, a survivalist and above all a stellar human being. Happy 95th Birthday Sir! And Blessings for many more!

Dear, Dr. Chomsky. Although I have never met you in person, I am inspired always by your candor. You embody the very idea of Pioneer, and your endless curiosity is a beacon to intellectuals everywhere. I consider myself a student of life, but you, sir, are a Sherpa. Wishing you many more years of inquisitiveness and inspiration. Thank you for being. Happy birthday!
