Proverbs 18:13-15
New Catholic Bible

13 One who answers before listening
    exposes his folly and incurs shame.
14 A man’s spirit can manage to endure sickness,
    but when the spirit is crushed, who can bear it?
15 A discerning mind gains knowledge,
    and the ears of the wise eagerly seek knowledge.
