"The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold."
Sirach 21:17

En contexte

15But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil: and there is no understanding where there is bitterness.

16The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life.

17The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold.

18A man of sense will praise every wise word he shall hear, and will apply it to himself: the luxurious man hath heard it, and it shall displease him, and he will cast it behind his back.

19The talking of a fool is like a burden in the way: but in the lips of the wise, grace shall be found.
