Imperviousness Quotes

The road to revolution involves openness to the people, not imperviousness to them; it involves communion with the people, not mistrust. (Paulo Freire)
In our modern complex world, fundamentalism is dangerous because of its rigidity and its imperviousness to other ideas. View quote
Michael Crichton
I'm not even against superheroes. It's not my cup of tea. But there's just this endless stream of them and they are so repetitious and suspend certain rules in a way that I don't find dramatically helpful. The imperviousness can be too much. View quote
Walter Hill
Most of us have had some experience interacting with religious fundamentalists, and we understand that one of the problems with fundamentalists is that they have no perspective on themselves. They never recognize that their way of thinking is just one of many other possible ways of thinking, which may be equally useful or good. On the contrary, they believe their way is the right way, everyone else is wrong; they are in the business of salvation, and they want to help you to see things the right way. They want to help you be saved. They are totally rigid and totally uninterested in opposing points of view. In our modern complex world, fundamentalism is dangerous because of its rigidity and its imperviousness to other ideas. View quote
