What if a fool corrects you? What if the person correcting you isn't correct? The wise man laughs.

If the person correcting you, is not correct, then it is not a correction, and you have not been corrected.

The second sentence in this paragraph is true. The first sentence in this paragraph is false.
(If a fool corrects you, are they not a "wise fool".)
