Shaw asserts that the ability to change your mind is the key to any change. Our opinions and beliefs shape our actions; if we stay rigid, we cannot evolve or influence the world. This quote encourages open-mindedness and intellectual flexibility. In a constantly changing world, clinging to ideas out of pride or habit is an obstacle.
