Not New, Not the World, and Not Order: an anagram exercise

I’d just as lief pretend to know,
Like Aristotle, where to file each thing;
But to seek more knowledge than I need
On this subject is to pursue evil ends.

For life arranges on its own
The order in which lessons come;
Worrying that their sequence is vile
is not to live at all.
