Proverbs 17:22, 27-28

Proverbs 17:22 NKJV

A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.

Proverbs 17:27-28 NKJV

He who has knowledge spares his words, And a man of understanding is of a calm spirit. Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive.
