“A wise man would be careful not to let any particular frame of mind settle down into a permanent attitude... A crusty old fool will delight in being just a crusty old fool, and a young sophisticated cynic will wallow in his cynicism.”

Lín Yǔtáng 林語堂 1895 – 1976 CE
from On the Wisdom of America, 1950
