32. "RE: Contradiction is a lower degree of intelligence." In response to In response to 9
A lot of people contradict themselves. When I attended Ithaca College, my polisci teacher whose name is Naeem, said once that “Contradictions are a way of telling you that the person who is struggling with them is actually struggling with something that means a lot to them.” He said that contradictions are a good sign that someone is struggling with their inner truths and that is not bad at all. This has always stuck with me.
Almost 8 years later, I find my self still quoting this to people.
