Distinguish open-minded people from closed-minded people. Open-minded people seek to learn by asking questions; they realize that what they know is little in relation to what there is to know and recognize that they might be wrong. Closed-minded people always tell you what they know, even if they know hardly anything about the subject being discussed. They are typically made uncomfortable by being around those who know a lot more about a subject, unlike open-minded people who are thrilled by such company.

Ray Dalio

When you are solving a difficult problem re-ask the problem so that your solution helps you learn faster. Find a faster way to fail, recover, and try again. If the problem you are trying to solve involves creating a magnum opus, you are solving the wrong problem.

Aza Raskin

If everybody minded their own business... the world would go round a deal faster than it does.

Lewis Carroll

If I'm in a good place, then I'm really open-minded to what's being presented, but if I'm in a bad place, I'm much more closed-minded.

Beth Hart

Two girls called me closed minded. I tell them that they are so open-minded their brains leaked out.

Tucker Max

Effective people are not problem-minded; they're opportunity minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems.

Stephen Covey

Effective people are not problem minded; they're opportunity-minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems. They think preventively.

Peter Drucker

You don't have to swim faster than the shark, just faster than the person you're with.

Kevin Nealon

As the joke goes, you don’t have to be faster than the wolf chasing you, just faster than everyone else running away.

Kim Harrison

The only place opportunity cannot be found is in a closed-minded person.

Bo Bennett

African-Americans have been brainwashed into not being open-minded, not even considering a conservative point of view. I have received some of that same vitriol simply because I am running for the Republican nomination as a conservative. So it's just brainwashing and people not being open-minded, pure and simple.

Herman Cain

I think the single most important political distinction today is actually between open-minded versus closed-minded, and that's why I think this crosses the boundaries of traditional - center-right and center-left have much more in common with each other right now than the right does with the center-right, and the left does with the center-left.

Tony Blair

For me it's a dedication to your real interests. It's an ability to be open-minded. Without an open-minded mind, you can never be a great success. The great artists have been open-minded, even though they may seem, like Picasso, to be very directed, you can be directed and open-minded at the same time. I think you have to be really intensely serious about your work, but not so serious that you can't see the lightness that may also involve your life. You have to have that lightness too. You have to not be so heavy-handed and so ostentatious. It's very important not to be.
