Quote by Boris Pasternak
As for the men in power, they are so anxious to establish the myth of infallibility that they do their utmost to ignore truth.
Summary
This quote suggests that those in positions of power are often driven to maintain a façade of being flawless or infallible. In order to uphold this image, they actively choose to ignore or deny the truth. Their concern with preserving their reputation and authority often leads them to disregard facts or reality, potentially leading to further deception and manipulation. This emphasis on infallibility can hinder progress, as it prevents an honest and open dialogue around mistakes and weaknesses.
