Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.(Ecclesiastes 9:16)
The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.(Ecclesiastes 9:17)
Wisdom is better than weapons of war: but one sinner destroyeth much good.(Ecclesiastes 9:18)
