Sergey Byshlyago. But living a life... (№ 455107)

But a person who has lived a life, accumulated experience, can only in rare cases afford to be trusting, it is this trustfulness that is based on wisdom, and not on a momentary flash of trust in an outsider and often a complete stranger. Therefore, oddly enough, a person with a lot of experience, both positive and negative, can be truly trusting. And in general, gullibility is a voluntary feeling, it is something that a person can afford. But to be a slave to your own credulity? This is the real stupidity.
