Most people don't know what they're talking about. They move their mouth and say things because they don't want to admit they don't know. Or they think they know, but it's just confabulation and biases. So ignore them unless what they say resonates with some real wisdom inside of you. Assume they're a fool and find out the truth for yourself.

It's so simple to learn, so simple to practice. And the restoration that comes to you, the benefit across your life; it's changed everything.

Cameron Diaz
