Quote: “Those who are always certain tend to be wrong at higher volume.”
— Bea Lurt
Bea Lurt had little patience for the overconfident. This quote skewers the modern obsession with certainty — the louder people insist they’re right, the more likely they’re not even close. Her humour lies in that perfect balance between cynicism and truth: wisdom whispers, arrogance shouts.
Her philosophy reminds us that doubt isn’t weakness; it’s awareness. The people who question themselves tend to grow, while those who never do simply repeat their mistakes — but louder, and often on social media. Bea’s observation is both timeless and timely, a gentle nudge to turn down the volume and think twice.
As The Sage might note: “Confidence without competence is just karaoke wisdom.”
