About this Quote

This quote by Ambrose Bierce speaks with the significance of impartiality in decision-making. By being unbiased, one is not able to view any guarantee of personal advantage from taking either side of a controversy. This means that one is not swayed by any potential personal gain, but instead is focused on making a decision based on what is ideal and simply. This is a crucial principle in decision-making, as it makes sure that choices are made without predisposition or bias. It also ensures that choices are made with the best interests of all celebrations in mind, instead of simply the interests of one individual or group. Impartiality is vital for making reasonable and simply decisions, and this quote acts as a pointer of the significance of this concept.
