"Common sense is the collection of prejudices aquired by age eighteen."
So, my first reaction: Does that mean every adult has common sense but no child does?
That CAN'T be right.
Second reaction: Does that mean I can ignore what I've come to know as my common sense as just go with my first impulse at all times?
Not if I don't want to get myself KILLED!
Third reaction: Einstein just meant regarding people! NOW I get it!
Hopefully you immediately jumped to the third conclusion, unlike me. My mind often diverges, so I've come to love the phrase "But I digress.."
