If you want a good idea killed, have it presented by the wrong person. We attach an outsized amount of meaning between the two, sometimes so much that we kill the person delivering it.
- still_grokking 4y agoSometimes? The easiest way to get killed by people in rage is to tell them the naked truth. That's a hard rule since humanities dawn.
