And a propos the preceding post, people, please spare me hearing “but the quote is from a bad book and the post is from a person with different politics.”
If one wants to develop intellectually, one doesn’t seek out people and texts who say what one already knows. Instead, one looks for sources that challenge what one believes.
And since I’m at it, please no more “I don’t agree with you about everything but. . .” Of course, you don’t agree with everything. If we are both alive and have functioning brains, there is zero chance we will agree about everything.
