What's up people? Do you like the quote of the day? It would be nice to call it my daily wisdom, but it is never from me, but from other people... I guess I mostly ruin it as I try to add my own thoughts to the wisdom already shared, but if you don't like it or don't agree with me, maybe you need to think harder. If you after thinking harder still don't agree with me, you have still learned something, because now you know even better why you think what you think, and why you don't agree with me.

When you agree with someone, you just nod, smile, and keep on going. But, if someone says something with which you don't agree, you should stop and think about the differences. What is it that you don't agree with? Why don't you agree? What is the perspective of the other person that makes him or her think otherwise? Is it possible that the other person is correct, and that you are wrong, even though you have been sure that you are correct in this matter for a long time?
The fact that you dare to ask yourself such questions proves maturity, and it will also take you deeper in the subject and give you an even better understanding.
As a result, I must admit that I very much agree with Dudley Malone as he sais:
"I have never in my life learned anything from any man who agreed with me."
If you agree you know the same thing
That is true, and that is why you don't learn a thing at all!
