My favorite quote ever, Friedrich Nietzsche:
“Nobody can build the bridge for you to walk across the river of
life, no one but you yourself alone. There are, to be sure,
countless paths and bridges and demi-gods which would carry you
across this river; but only at the cost of yourself; you would
pawn yourself and lose. There is in the world only one way, on
which nobody can go, except you: where does it lead? Do not ask,
go along with it.”

In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC) Socrates was widely lauded for
his wisdom. One day the great philosopher came upon an
acquaintance who ran up to him excitedly and said
"Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your
students?"
"Wait a moment," Socrates replied. "Before you tell me I'd like
you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test."
"Triple filter?"
"That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about
my student let's take a moment to filter what you're going to
say. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure
that what you are about to tell me is true?"
"No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and..."
"All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's
true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of
Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student
something good?"
"No, on the contrary..."
"So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad
about him, even though you're not certain it's true?"
The man shrugged, a little embarrassed.
Socrates continued. "You may still pass the test though, because
there is a third filter - the filter of Usefulness. Is what you
want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me?"
"No, not really"
"Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is
neither true nor Good nor even useful, why tell it to me at
all?"
The man was defeated and ashamed.

That's actually pretty good if true. Maybe you should put every
new poster through those three tests in order to qualify for
your forum. lolol :P
