Toutes les opinions ne se valent pas, et il ne faut pas conf

Summary

This quote, translated as "Not all opinions are equal, and one must not confuse the eloquence of speech with the accuracy of thought," highlights the importance of discerning between different opinions. It emphasizes that eloquent words do not necessarily indicate the correctness of someone's thinking. This serves as a reminder to not blindly accept persuasive arguments but to critically evaluate the logic and validity behind them. In essence, this quote underlines the need to separate eloquence from intellectual substance when judging the value of differing viewpoints.

It's time to put an end to this. It's time for us to let ourselves be loved.
