If you wish to appear agreeable in society, you must consent to be taught many things which you know already.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If we are really going to learn from others, we must decide to fully obey.
You have to lead people gently toward what they already know is right.
I am in agreement with everything my father taught me and nothing my mother taught me.
My mother always taught us that if people don't agree with you, the important thing is to listen to them. But if you've listened to them carefully and you still think that you're right, then you must have the courage of your convictions.
The permissiveness of society must be balanced with authoritativeness.
I think we have to get back the value of behavior that is consistent with being taught: that's to say, respecting teachers, listening, and not always expecting your opinion to take precedence.
Whatever we, as prospective participants unaware of our specific features, would desire society to be like is what, morally speaking, we ought to institute.
My idea of an agreeable person is a person who agrees with me.
We should be tolerant, fair, open, and we should understand the rights that all people have in our society.
When you say you agree to a thing in principle you mean that you have not the slightest intention of carrying it out in practice.
