Proverbs 19:11-13 The Message (MSG)

11. Smart people know how to hold their tongue;their grandeur is to forgive and forget.

12. Mean-tempered leaders are like mad dogs;the good-natured are like fresh morning dew.

13. A parent is worn to a frazzle by a stupid child;a nagging spouse is a leaky faucet.
