The only thing that permits human beings to collaborate with one another in a truly open-ended way is their willingness to have their beliefs modified by new facts. Only openness to evidence and argument will secure a common world for us.
唯一允许人类以一种真正开放的方式彼此合作的是他们愿意让自己的信念被新的事实所改变。只有对证据和论点持开放态度，我们才能建立一个共同的世界。
