quiet wisdom

Proverbs 12:23 “A prudent man keeps his knowledge to himself, but the heart of fools blurts out folly.” It is very common for a person who wants to appear knowledgeable expose his ignorance by instructing a person who is accomplished while the accomplished quietly listens.  One would think the opposite to be true, but as Solomon explains, it is not.  Always learn from the knowledgeable, hopefully wise person, whether that person be male or female.
