What is the meaning of Believe only half of what you see and nothing that you hear?
It needs no answer, it is exactly what it is. But if you do need an answer all you have to do is think about it. What you see with your own eyes sometimes is not exactly what is happening ,but, what you "think" is happening, so, believe half of that. As for the other half of the question, believe nothing of what you hear because it is gossip, plain and simple.

That should answer your question.Just a comment on the above answer; Of course you would believe that you are going to die. 100% of people die.By all means, NO. but you can believe this answer.ANSWER: I think you should believe everything you read. Are you reading this? Do you believe it? Why not? It's true. I swear! What? I am not lying. O.k. fine...if you don't want to believe everything you read, then at the very least believe this; "There are no such things as stupid questions." Do you believe it? You believe that?

I SAY:believing everthingthing you read would be an utterly foolish and moreover idiotic sort of action or thought. this world is full of conniving people who desire to mislead.
