Summary

This quote by Friedrich Nietzsche suggests that our deeply held convictions can be even more harmful than intentional falsehoods. While lies can mislead and deceive, they can often be identified and refuted. However, convictions, being firmly held beliefs we perceive as true, can cloud our judgment and prevent us from seeking out or accepting contrary evidence or alternative viewpoints. In this way, our convictions can act as formidable obstacles to discovering and embracing the truth.
