٨٦. وَقَالَ (عليه السلام): رَأْيُ الشَّيْخِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ جَلَدِ الْغُلاَمِ؛ وَروي: مِنْ مَشْهَدِ الْغُلاَمِ.
Translation
86. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: I love the opinion of an old man more than the determination of a young man; (or according to another version) more than the martyrdom of a young man.
