“Do not rely on what you have heard proclaimed, or upon custom, or upon rumor, or upon scripture, or inference, or established principles, or clever reasoning, or favoring a pet theory. • Do not be convinced by someone else’s apparent intelligence, nor out of respect for a teacher…..
When you yourself know what is wrong, foolish, and unworthy, and what leads to harm and discontent, abandon it…And when you yourself know what is right, develop it.”
