Proverbs 13:16

Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly.

Every prudent person acts from knowledge while the fool displays folly openly, and set beside the saying about things that never cry enough, this exposes the victorious spirit of war as likewise never satisfied. Once victorious, that spirit continually demands more conquest, more glory, and more gain. Its appetite grows with each success instead of resting content with what has been won.
