About this Quote

They are commonly based upon incorrect presumptions and also stereotypes, as well as can be challenging to identify and challenge. Malebranche is recommending that removing prejudices is not as very easy as doing away with an old coat. An old coat can be discarded and also failed to remember, but bias are much more deeply rooted and also can be difficult to recognize and also attend to. Bias can be so deeply embedded that they can be challenging to recognize and challenge, and can be passed down from generation to generation. Malebranche's quote is a tip that doing away with bias is not a basic job, and also requires mindful initiative as well as commitment to recognize as well as challenge them.
