Quotes
“I see adults and children who struggle to express themselves. Problems are often created by what we think about. Our society needs to innerstand where our opinions and beliefs come from. We have minds and we can focus on our own thoughts rather than having other people do our thinking for us.”
“There is a world of possibility when we encourage people to think. The phrase ‘I don’t know’ is used too quickly. It is a bridge that suggests mental laziness.”
“We should use more phrases that encourage us to think. Instead of saying ‘I don’t know’ we could say things like ‘I’m going to think about it’ or ‘Give me a minute to think about it.”
