He that cannot reason is a fool.
He that will not is a bigot.
He that dare not is a slave.
~Andrew Carnegie

i think that it means you should know your own beliefs and be sstrong in your own opinions and know whay you want.
After reading this, I beleive that it says that if you can not reason or think in life your life is meaningless
i belive that this statement from Carnegie in so many words describes how a person should be reasonable, but confident in that reason. I also think hes meaning to say that if you believe in something but do not say you are a slave to possibly society, and that you have to choose the right way for yourself.
Meaning that if you don't take a step to doing something to resolve or make the situation better. Then theres not point at all of having a voice.
I think that it means uncertainty and unwillingness is pointless
I believe that Andrew Carnegie's quote means that people need to be able to reason or in other words compromise otherwise they are eather a fool a morone or an idiot. yes adam i know well put. i think i deserve an A.
in my mind i think it means that what you belive in is what you do and don't back off about it be strong because its how you live your life.
I think that it means if you don't reason or even try your not going to amount to anything big in life.
