Don’t respond to the words of a fool with more foolish words, or you will become as foolish as he is! Instead, if you’re asked a silly question, answer it with words of wisdom so the fool doesn’t think he’s so clever.

Fools are famous for repeating their errors, like dogs are known to return to their vomit.

It takes fuel to have a fire— a fire dies down when you run out of fuel. So quarrels disappear when the gossip ends.

Go ahead, set a trap for others— and then watch as it snaps back on you! Start a landslide and you’ll be the one who gets crushed.

There’s only one thing worse than a fool, and that’s the smug, conceited man always in love with his own opinions.

It’s better to grab a stray dog by its ears than to meddle in a quarrel that’s none of your business.
