Begin challenging your own assumptions.
Your assumptions are your window on the world.
Scrub them off every once in awhile,
or the light won't come in.

Uh Huh ! very wise words

Nothing is more conducive to peace of mind
than not having any opinion at all.

  3. Like the last quote- a very opiniated person is a pain indeed.My husband has a great idea when he told me uttering the simple word "Pass" often suffices and is often respected as such.

    I think if you know anything at all of what the subject matter is then you must have an opinion. Thats not to say you must state your opinion on every little thing. But to sit back and deny having an opinion on something that you really do is just not right. Your opinion could be very valuable to somebody.

    Thats just my opinion.
