One of the most difficult thing for us mortals to do is to maintain objectivity regarding issues we consider important, and especially if they are likely to affect us significantly.

It would be impossible to offer anything approaching an accurate estimate of the number of people capable of maintaining their objectivity in such situations.

This poses one of the greatest challenges we face in communicating and cooperating with other people, and especially those holding differing opinions than our own. 

There is nothing we can do to make others more objective and amenable to those facts they wish didn't exist.

The only option for us is to work assiduously to become more objective and disinterested ourselves.

Remember, become the change you want to see.
