“Admit nothing - that was his first rule. Appeal to logic - second rule. Delay the inevitable - third rule.”

“Sometimes, you get things right the first time. Others, the second. But the third time, they say, is the charm.”
“The first step in the acquisition of wisdom is silence, the second listening, the third memory, the fourth practice, the fifth teaching others".”
