Do you see a man who is hasty in his words? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;
Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.
Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.
Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore let your words be few.
The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.
A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.
