Consultation

Two quotes about consultation that we all (definitely me) need to imbibe, I think...

"He who expresses an opinion should not voice it as correct and right but set it forth as a contribution to the consensus of opinion, for the light of reality becomes apparent when two opinions coincide."

"If they agree upon a subject, even though it be wrong, it is better than to disagree and be in the right, for this difference will produce the demolition of the divine foundation. Though one of the parties may be in the right and they disagree that will be the cause of a thousand wrongs, but if they agree and both parties are in the wrong, as it is in unity the truth will be revealed and the wrong made right."

-- Abdu'l Baha

The second, in particular, is worth discussing... What is it that makes it better to be united and wrong rather than divided and right? What do you all think?
