If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours. If it does not come back, it was never meant to be.
You asked me whose life was more important- yours or mine and I answered "mine" ; you walked away angry not knowing that you are my life.
If we value the pursuit of knowledge, we must be free to follow wherever that search may lead us. The free mind is not a barking dog, to be tethered on a ten-foot chain.
Knowledge must come through action; you can have no test which is not fanciful, save by trial.
