The problem with closed minded people is that their mouth is always open. And the problem with having an open mind is that closed minded people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it. -Denzel Setheni
Published On: March 10th 2021, Wednesday @ 12:22:45 PM
(“The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it” is a 1990 quotation by English author Terry Pratchett. Denzel Setheni was about 12 years old in 2011, when the first quotation has been cited.—ed.)
