That saying holds more truth if you're using the "non-political" definitions of conservative -- i.e. moderate, cautious, or resistant to change.

Moreso "set in your ways" as the world changes around you.

I suppose this is true, but remaining set in your ways while the world changes, taken to it's logical conclusion is political conservatism/fascism
