Summary
This quote by author and philosopher Bertrand Russell highlights the reluctance of some individuals to engage in critical thinking. It suggests that rather than carefully contemplating and analyzing information or ideas, some people would rather hold onto their preconceived notions or ignorance even if it means sacrificing their intellectual growth. It reflects the human tendency to avoid challenging one's beliefs and accepting convenient falsehoods, which ultimately hampers personal and societal progress.
