About This Quote

Engaging solely to validate your opinion takes away from the character building process. You are not learning or gaining new ideas by only doing things you feel are right. Undoubtedly, you will come across people who do not share your opinion. But, if you are willing to listen to their side of the story because it is interesting, you will be able to learn something. You will also be able to make informed decisions rather than making decisions based on your own opinions.
