“Sending a message by the hands of a fool is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.
Like the useless legs of one who is lame is a proverb in the mouth of a fool.
Like tying a stone in a sling is the giving of honor to a fool. Like a thornbush in a drunkard’s hand
is a proverb in the mouth of a fool. Like an archer who wounds at random
is one who hires a fool or any passer-by. As a dog returns to its vomit,
so fools repeat their folly.” {Proverbs 26:6-11}
