Do not believe in anything simply because
you have heard it. Do not believe simply because it has been handed down for
many generations.  Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken
and rumored by many.  Do not believe in anything simply because it is written
in Holy Scriptures.  Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of
Teachers, elders or wise men. Believe only after careful observation and
analysis, when you find that it agrees with reason and is conducive to the
good and benefit of one and all. Then accept it and live up to it.”
– Buddha

===

The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those
who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and
relearn.
– Alvin Toffler
