Fools don't learn...

They say a little learning is a dangerous thing, and that's so true. It can cause you to think you're more than you really are. But the fool will rather blind his own eyes, pretending to have everything figured out, even if his failings afford him the opportunity to learn quite as much from his weaknesses as from his strengths, and that's because the foolish spirit is unteachable.

Every single one of us, as well as our individual conditions are products of the decisions we made in the past, but whether we should be restrained within the bounds of those decisions is a thing of basic intelligence. Show me a product of good decisions and I will show you an intelligent person, like I will show you a fool when you show me a product of ceaseless fuckups, one who will never learn from his mistakes even after donkey's years, much less from the mistakes of those before him.

So if you ask me, don't be a fool. Be teachable and learn from your mistakes, and even best, learn from the mistakes of those before you, it will take you far.
