“Be not wise in thine own conceit, in thinking that thou hast learned all the skill which is to be learned already, farre deceived are thou if thou thinks so, for if thou live (til) thou art olde, yet thou mayest learne still. Never leave studying and practicing till you come to the ground and until you have sounded into the depth of your Art.”
Joseph Swetnam
