a dose of wisdom

 

 

Arguing with incompetence is a waste of time—especially confident incompetence. 

Humility + instruction = competence. (Prov. 9:9)  

~ Cary Schmidt {as seen on his amazon.com author page}

And what does God say in Proverbs 9:9?

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

 

Mr. Schmidt’s comment reminded me of this quote:

Never argue with stupid people,

They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

~Mark Twain
