But it is even rarer for a human to ignore when he has been proven wrong. The writing of ideas, arguments, and criticism improves democracy.” PeopleThinkingWayWritingMindHumansHas BeensIdeasCoursesEasyDemocracyIssuesProductsCitizensArgumentCriticismHarderProvenMisguidedProven Wrong Book:Free Culture Source: Free Culture
