- Mikhail Gorbachev

About this Quote

In this quote, Mikhail Gorbachev is warning versus the simple belief that the problems dealing with humanity can be quickly resolved by relying on old solutions or methods that have actually worked in the past. He recommends that this technique is ignorant and stops working to take into account the complexities and evolving nature of our issues. Gorbachev, a previous Soviet leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner, is understood for his progressive and ingenious ideas, and this quote shows his belief in the requirement for brand-new and imaginative techniques to attend to the challenges of our time. He reminds us that the world is constantly changing, and we must adjust and discover brand-new ways to tackle our problems.
