Bias and prejudice are attitudes to be kept in hand, not attitudes to be avoided.
Meaning of the quote
Bias and prejudice are feelings we all have, but we need to learn how to control them. We shouldn't try to ignore or pretend they don't exist. Instead, we should work on understanding and managing these feelings. This way, we can make better choices and treat everyone fairly, even if we have strong opinions or feelings about certain people or groups.
