    1. It’s ok, that feeling will pass. Just hang on to your core beliefs, don’t let annoying things like facts get in the way and you’ll be fine.

    1. The trouble is, the more you know, the less certain you are that you ever knew anything. Certainty often coexists with stupidity. But try telling a stupid person that they are wrong.
