What Can Make You Wiser Than the Truth?

From Denny: Since I was a child I've had a love of quotations. Never have I seen anything like this quote expressed! It's the kind of quote that takes a bit of life experience to know that it is true as many of us have wrestled with it whether as children or as adults. Your life is more difficult if you do not learn this life skill - the sooner the better - and it can apply in personal relationships or business.

"Losing an illusion makes you wiser than finding a truth." ~ Ludwig Börne
