After a village meeting, a poor man, commented on the problems of rats - that they ate the dry fish he kept in the kitchen, the previous night. His statement was scorned; that, how is it possible for rats to devour fish. However, when a young, but very rich man remarked that a rat fell on his grinding stone, thereby breaking it to pieces. The people commented that, "How so! Just the sort of thing a rat would do!"

The remarks of a penniless man, if true, becomes false.

i dont think so. there a lot of poor people out there full of wisdom and that are taken seriously.
