Terry PratchettPerhaps it would be simpler if you just did what you're told and didn't try to understand things.
About This Quote
If it were so simple, why would anyone need to understand things? If the instructions are clear, then there’s no reason to question them. If you are told what to do, then you do it. Some people think that if they tell you how something should be done, then you should just do it that way without asking questions. They believe that if they don’t understand something, then there’s nothing to be done about it.
But understanding is what makes things work. If you don’t understand something, then ask about it. It can make all the difference in the world.
