“It is a narrow mind which cannot look at a subject from various points of view”
— George Eliot

Simplified Meaning:
Someone who can't see an issue from different angles has a limited way of thinking. Imagine a group of friends trying to decide on a place to eat. One friend is stuck on just one restaurant and refuses to consider others. This friend has a narrow view; they aren't open to different choices or ideas. In history, leaders who considered multiple perspectives often made better decisions, like Abraham Lincoln who listened to various advisers before making choices during the Civil War. To be wise, try to understand different opinions and viewpoints before making a decision. This helps in making choices that are fair and well-thought-out.
