No one can take what's inside your head once it's there.

About This Quote

No one can take what’s inside your head once it’s there, says the famous proverb. The mind is a very powerful thing – people have been known to change their mind – yet we have a tendency to think that the decisions we make are final and unchanging. They’re not. We can go back and change our minds, but sometimes it takes time to realize that the old ways of thinking were wrong.
