quotable quote....

Just came across an interesting quote today:
"Silently hear everyone. Accept what is good and reject and forget to remember what is bad. This is the way to live intelligently in life. "

When I gave it a deeper thought for a moment, I sure did realize how much time and energy we would save by avoiding arguments.. Sometimes a simple discussion turns into a heated argument - and from then on it is just the ego that drives that conversation, and eventually ends up with displeasure.. if one can be patient and listen to others view point, and if one could have a controlled discussion (without leading to a heated argument), then the dicussion could actually benefit everyone involved. No ego, no anger, no displeasure. That would be the best way to live intelligently in life.
