Thomas Gilovich Quotes

We are the sum total of our experiences Picture Quote #1
We believe certain things because they ought to be true Picture Quote #1
When examining evidence relevant to a given belief, people are inclined to see what they expect to see, and conclude what they expect to conclude. Information that is consistent with our pre-existing beliefs is often accepted at face value, whereas evidence that contradicts them is critically scrutinized and discounted. Our beliefs may thus be less responsive than they should to the implications of new information Picture Quote #1
People will always prefer black-and-white over shades of grey, and so there will always be the temptation to hold overly-simplified beliefs and to hold them with excessive confidence Picture Quote #1
What we believe is heavily influenced by what we think others believe Picture Quote #1
We seek opinions that are likely to support what we want to be true Picture Quote #1

When we do cross paths with people whose beliefs and attitudes conflict with our own, we are rarely challenged Picture Quote #1
