Summary

This quote suggests that having strong convictions allows a person to always have answers. When someone firmly believes in something, they are less likely to be swayed by new information or different perspectives. This can be seen as a form of protection, as having convictions shields a person from being influenced by the ever-changing and potentially unsettling nature of the truth. In a way, this quote implies that convictions provide stability and certainty, even if they may limit one's openness to the possibility of alternative truths.
