Be the Unbeliever and not the True Believer

“Believe nothing you hear, and only one half that you see.” ~ Edgar Allan Poe in his story The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether

This is a good advise from Poe. The people that I despise most are those who believe in everything they hear and everything that they see. You should, as Poe notes in his story, “learn to judge for yourself of what is going on in the world, without trusting to the gossip of others.”
