    Own Your Thoughts, Own Your Power

    Miglior citazione da Own Your Thoughts, Own Your Power

    “

    Intellectual independence doesn't mean being certain of your views—it often means being certain you don't have enough information to be certain. Your capacity to think is who you are, but your current conclusions are just where you happen to be standing today.

    ”
