It’s better to be shocked by truth than snared by a comfortable untruth. Truth leads to freedom, lies to bondage.
One of the most unused human rights is the right to change your opinion. When someone disagrees with you, it doesn’t prove them wrong. It just proves that they see things differently than you do.
