The life of Darwin demonstrates how a turtle may outrun the hares, aided by extreme objectivity, which helps the objective person end up like the only player without blindfold in a game of pin-the-donkey.
If you minimize objectivity, you ignore not only a lesson from Darwin but also one from Einstein. Einstein said that his successful theories came from: 'Curiosity, concentration, perseverance and self-criticism.' And by self-criticism he meant the testing and destruction of his own well-loved ideas.
-Charlie Munger, as excerpted from this speech
