It’s important to listen to people who believe things that differ from what you do have to say. At the same time, you don’t have to drop what you believed to be true and conform to their way of thinking. Take what you can, if that’s even anything, from the theories of others. At the end of the day, you have to believe what you believe, whatever that may be.
