Someone posted a Jan Morris interview here some time ago, and in it she said "Everything good in the world is kindness."

Anyway, I've been humbled a few times where I thought someone wasn't understanding me, but really I didn't understand them or some piece of the problem outside my experience. On HN I learned about Chesterton's Fence, between that and the thought on kindness, I try to just be nice and assume I'm missing something when reasonable people disagree with me and if I'm not the one missing something, my questions will only help me help them understand my perspective.
