Said by [livejournal.com profile] chipuni, on a friend's (locked) post, but I think the importance of this statement transcends the context:


The difference between "I don't understand X" and "I should attack X" is gigantic. People aren't taught that "I don't understand X" is an opportunity, not a threat.

Wow!

Amazing how clearly that's articulated.

Oh. ran across you thanks to Janezero's journal (and some stolen time at the office ...heh)

Where I'm from originally, people will tend to say "that's different" about anything new encountered, and some of them say it with a frown, some with a smile. It's the smilers that I try to find.
