“Once the human mind has favored certain views, it pulls
everything else into agreement with and support for them.
Should they be outweighed by more powerful countervailing
considerations, it either fails to notice these, or scorns them,
or makes fine distinctions in order to neutralize or reject
them . . . thereby leaving untouched the authority of its
previous position.”
― Francis Bacon

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
