We Should Be Careful To Get Out Of An Experience Only The Wisdom That Is
In It - And Stay There, Lest We Be Like The Cat That Sits Down On A Hot
Stove-lid.
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is
in it - and stay there, lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot
stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again - and that
is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one any more.
-- Mark Twain
