5 Bryant McGill Quotes on Understanding

Bryant McGill quotes on understanding

  1. Understanding: 'I would like to build bridges to greater understanding and empathy. It is not that I believe there is no evil in the world; for there surely is, and it must be dealt with. I do, however, believe there is an appalling lack of understanding, communication and concession between individuals and groups.'

  3. Understanding: 'To know something you must also know its seasons. What would one know of the Earth who only saw the winter, and what would one say of the moon who only saw its faint image in the bright of day? The same is true of people, for only in great time may the seasons of their hearts be known.'

  4. Words: 'Words are the tools that verbally enable our thoughts. If a person cannot communicate his ideas effectively to others because of a weakness in language, then how may he understand the concepts of others fully? Moreover, how may one conceive and understand one's own creative thoughts? How can you bring to fruition that which you cannot convert from the abstract?'
