What is your audio axiom?

So we all have been given audio advice and also shared with others our tips and advice. I ask you to share your #1 audio axiom. If you were giving advice or sharing experience (say to a young person starting in this hobby) what would it be? 
 

Here is mine (to start). “No matter how good your audio equipment or system, the quality of any given recording will make or break the listening experience”

Now the ball is handed to you guys…

“It’s both worth it and not worth it.”

“It’s worth it” - what audiophiles tell themselves when purchasing a component 

“it’s not worth it” - how audiophiles view many/most above budget components

….now, what about your spouse? 😉

@dweller Very sage advice but in many parts of the country thats a bit of a reach. Why wait to begin the journey toward the dream system?

I always tell myself "do not comment on streamer or pricey cables discussions". 

Entire towns have been burnt down over disagreements about the value of [x] dollar interconnects.
