"The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come."
~ Joseph Campbell, 20th Century Philosopher & Mythology Expert from A Joseph Campbell Companion: Reflections on the Art of Living
Nietzsche made a brilliant comment on this as well:
"Shedding one's skin. The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes. So do the spirits who are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be spirit."

…
How’s your skin?
