Your assumptions are your windows on the world.Scrub them off every once in a while,or the light won't come in.
Merely having an open mind is nothing; the object of opening the
mind, as of opening the mouth,is to shut it again on something solid.
The open mind never acts: when we have done our utmost to arrive
at a reasonable conclusion, we still - must close our minds for
the moment with a snap, and act dogmatically on our conclusions.
You can have such an open mind that it is too porous to hold a conviction.
