“Whenever you say, "I do not know something," you are flexible.”
The Times of India, 10 June 2009
Sourced from newspapers and magazines
Context: Whenever you say, "I do not know something," you are flexible. Whenever you think, "I know it," you become rigid. This rigidity is not just attitude; it percolates into every aspect of your life. This rigidity is also the cause of an enormous amount of suffering in the world.
“It’s frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.”
