It is better to ...

... y'all know the "it is better to be silent and be thought a fool
than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

I was inspired by a Cheryl Wheeler song ('often wrong but seldom in doubt') and our struggling math students to coin "it is better to be confused and to figure things out than to be sure of yourself, but wrong."

THere have got to be more of 'em out there... collective wisdom?

Don't criticize someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes..............That way when you do criticize them, they can't hear you and you have new shoes.

That the sort of wisdom you are looking for?? :rolleyes::rolleyes:
