I beg you, do not be unchangeable.
Do not believe that you alone can be right.
The man who thinks that,
The man who maintains that only he has the power
to reason correctly, the gift to speak, the soul–
A man like that, when you know him, turns out empty.
(Greek philosopher Sophocles)

So true. And if Sophocles said it, so long ago, shows there is, ‘nothing new under the sun’ (Ecclesiastes).
