Quotes by Linda Elder (?)

“We naturally think from our own perspective, from a point of view which tends to privilege our position. Fairness implies the treating of all relevant viewpoints alike without reference to one's own feelings or interests. Because we tend to be biased in favor of our own viewpoint, it is important to keep the standard of fairness at the forefront of our thinking. This is especially important when the situation may call on us to see things we don't want to see, or give something up that we want to hold onto.”
― Linda Elder, The Miniature Guide to Critical Thinking-Concepts and Tools

“Because we cannot be skilled at thinking unless we are skilled at questioning, we strive for a state of mind in which essential questions become second nature. They are the keys to productive thinking, deep learning, and effective living.”
― Linda Elder, The Art of Asking Essential Questions: Based on Critical Thinking Concepts and Socratic Principles
