A Slave to Present Position
May 27th, 2008 • Posted in: Quote from the Ethics File“I have always strenuously supported the right of every man to his opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another that right, makes a slave of himself to his present position, because he precludes himself from changing it.”
– Thomas Paine (U.S. political philosopher and author, 1737-1809)
