AN INTELLIGENT PERSON DOES
NOT REVEAL A SECRET
It is narrated that one of the pious once wanted to divorce his wife. When he was asked: 'What makes you dislike her?' He said: 'An intelligent person does not reveal a secret.' When he had divorced her he was asked: 'What made you divorce her?' His reply was: 'I do not wish to talk about a woman that is not mine.'
