One of the key reasons Conversation at the Crossroads exists and why we do what we do #auspol22 #criticalthinking #Debate2022

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with you is not “You were right.” It’s “You made me think.”

Good arguments help us recognize complexity where we once saw simplicity.

The ultimate purpose of debate is not to produce consensus. It’s to promote critical thinking.
