An idea from Guide for the Perplexed

The mind has a boundary it can’t cross, the way an eye can’t read print too far off. Much error comes from habit instead. You defend the views you grew up with, like villagers who would turn down silk and a palace because they’re used to less.

From Guide for the Perplexed by Moses Maimonides
