Here's one of my favorites.
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

Calvin Coolidge​

When I was a youngster and knew everything there was to know in the world, my Mom would tell me "It's what you learn after you know it all that's important". Don't know if she got it somewhere else or if it's a quote of hers. The older I get though, the more I see she is exactly right.

Hey Bob! not tryin' to be offensive. My Dad used to tell me this saying when I was a child and it made sense. If you think about it deeply, you'll realize it's true.

it does make sense, and I wasn't offended by it

that quote is probably geared to those who gossip about people, well that's my interpretation of it, don't be a gossip, there are more important things to talk about
