A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1
He who shouts the loudest does not win the argument, nor make his point. Loud angry speech elevates until one looses control. The soft gentle answer displays confidence. Try this the next time someone is tempting us into a shouting match. Every time they raise their voice, let's lower ours. Let's not let the harsh word stir us to anger. That's the way, "the gentle shall inherit the earth."
