"Un hombre sabio ajusta su creencia a la evidencia"
— David Hume
Simplified Meaning:
When you believe in something, you should look at how much proof or evidence there is to support it. For example, if someone tells you the sky is green, you would not just take their word for it. You would look up and see that the sky is actually blue. The idea is to adjust your belief according to the facts you have. It's like when you read a review of a product before buying it; if many people say it's good, you can trust it more, but if there are lots of complaints, you might think twice. So, in your life, always try to find solid evidence before fully trusting something or someone. This way, you make better decisions and are less likely to be misled.
