I like the sutra: "If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look at the results as they are manifested in the present."

I probably live by this adage though: "Anything that contradicts experience and logic should be abandoned" and, "The ultimate authority must always rest with the individual's own reason and critical analysis" both from the Dalai Lama.
