Remember, always, that everything you know, and everything everyone knows, is only a model. Get your model out there where it can be viewed. Invite others to challenge your assumptions and add their own.

About This Quote

Remember that, always, that everything you know, and everything everyone knows, is only a model. Your knowledge of the world is limited to your own experience. It is true, however, that you can express your views through your writing and through your drawings. You can invite others to challenge your assumptions and add their own.
