Some wisdom from Proverbs 15

A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.

A fool spurns his father's discipline,
but whoever heeds correction shows prudence.

A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension,
but a patient man calms a quarrel.

The LORD is far from the wicked
but he hears the prayer of the righteous.

The fear of the LORD teaches a man wisdom,
and humility comes before honor.
