“A discussion should be a genuine attempt to explore a subject rather than a battle between competing egos.”
― Edward De Bono, How to Have a Beautiful Mind

“Everyone has the right to doubt everything as often as he pleases and the duty to do it at least once. No way of looking at things is too sacred to be reconsidered. No way of doing things is beyond improvement.”
― Edward De Bono, The Use of Lateral Thinking

“A memory is what is left when something happens and does not completely unhappen.”
― Edward De Bono

“(...) being right all the time acquires a huge importance in education, and there is this terror of being wrong. The ego is so tied to being right that later on in life you are reluctant to accept that you are ever wrong, because you are defending not the idea but your self-esteem. (...) this terror of being wrong means that people have enormous difficulties in changing ideas.”
― Edward De Bono, Po: Beyond Yes and No
