today's quote of the day?

Question

at work we get a quote of the day each day, a couple of weeks ago we had a quote by helen keller “The highest result of education is tolerance.”

Today's quote of the day is :

"Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are open".

quoted from Sir James Dewar

do you agree or disagree? any comments welcome.

Answer 1

"Minda are like a car. which run only when fuel is there.

Answer 2

I agree with the quote but I find the lengthy discussion a barrier to getting to the quote, using my critical thinking skills to analysis it and forming an opinion.

Answer 3

I do agree, yes.



Thereagain, for arguement's sake - a closed mind has perspective and can therefore be as subjective as an open mind. If you know what I mean. If not, that's totally fine!

Answer 4

Yes i do agree, but every 1s parachute has its own limit 2 get worked it opened n then keep it stayed opened instead of exploding due 2 too much stress ..Ha ha ha !

Answer 5

It's very true. My quote of the day is "Optimists invented the plane; pessimists invented the parachute".

Answer 6

Not true. What about people with dementia, schitzophrenia and cerebral palsy?



A mind can be *closed* cognitively but you can still live a fulfilling life full of happiness and meaning...

Answer 7

i agree a bit, in today's society where basically anything goes and everyone is different having an open mind is defiantly better

Answer 8

Totally agree!



You can't learn with a closed mind.

Answer 9

just my humble opinion having a quote every day, i think its to much, having a quote once a week gives it more meaning.
