Hear, Hear

 

"It doesn't make one stupid to hear again what one already knows!"

That's a proverb attributed to the late physicist S. Chandrasekhar by one of his students. I like it and tend to quote it occasionally. The other evening, though, after saying it once I suddenly decided to recite it again:

It doesn't make one stupid to hear again what one already knows!"
