3 quotes from The Righteous Mind

  • "The mind is divided, like a rider on an elephant, and the rider's job is to serve the elephant's interests."
  • "Morality binds and builds; it uplifts some and establishes the boundaries of acceptable behavior for others."
  • "Our moral reasoning is more like a politician searching for votes than a scientist searching for truth."

Author : Jonathan Haidt

Jonathan Haidt is a leading American social and positive psychologist. He is a graduate of Yale and the University of Pennsylvania. He has delivered many TED talks, and in 2013 Prospect magazine named him one of the world's top 50 thinkers. Haidt is widely known for a theory he developed in another book, The Happiness Hypothesis. In this work, Haidt suggests that the emotional mind is like an elephant, while the rational mind resembles a rider on top of the elephant. Often, a rider cannot make an elephant go where they want. Instead, the riders serve their elephants, accepting responsibility for interpreting their elephant’s autonomous will.
