When others have wrong words to say,
Don't let matters go astray.
It's often better just to pray,
For prayer turns ill will away.
Understanding holds its peace
And causes inflamed words to cease.
Quiet wisdom is a plus
And often saves ado and fuss.
"He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, he who rules his (own) spirit than he who takes a city."
Proverbs 16:32 Amplified Bible
