If You Are Uninterested In What I Say, There's An End To It. If You Like What I Say, Please Try To Understand Which Previous Influences Have Made You Like It. If You Like Some Of The Things I Say, And Dislike Others, You Could Try To Understand Why. If You Dislike All I Say, Why Not Try To Find Out What Formed Your Attitude?

Anybody Or Anything May Stand Between You And Knowledge If You Are Unfit For It.
