"No man likes to think of all he has learned going up like the smoke of a fire, to be lost in the vastness of sky and cloud. Pa wanted to share it with us, to give us what he learned, and I listened well, them days, and I learned a sight more than I guessed." (from Treasure Mountain, by Louis L'Amour)
Louis pretty well summed up the difference between a wise son and a foolish one: the wise one listens and learns.
